It's the same for me, 5 seconds hang up, before the window appears. I use xfrun4 instead of xfce4-appfinder, but the result is very similar (Ubuntu 12.04, XFCE 4.8.0.3), strace attached.
--disable-server option didn't work (no this option for xfrun4?), but I killed the already running xfrun4 (xfrun4 --daemon) and it helped. ** Attachment added: "xfrun4 strace output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-appfinder/+bug/1048805/+attachment/3852933/+files/xfrun4.strace.out -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1048805 Title: xfrun4 launches very slowly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-appfinder/+bug/1048805/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
