For a few weeks, starting Gnome applications such as gimv had been very slow. For instance, starting gimv (with no options) on my 400MHz G4 PowerBook takes 25 seconds! A strace suggests that it takes all this time by loading fonts from /usr/share/texmf/fonts (I have this directory in /etc/fonts/local.conf since it is used by Mozilla in order to render MathML).
Does anyone have similar problems? Couldn't these applications use a font cache?
