I'm not sure why the "is 2s too slow to start" is the question being
asked.  Who starts and stops their calculator multiple times in a row?
That's not a realistic use-case for the vast majority.

Most people need a calculator once a day or every few days, and a
desktop calculator is not an application people tend to leave running
for long periods like a browser or word processor.  They need to do a
quick bit of computation so they open the app, work in it for a few
minutes, then close it again.  Startup speed is, after correctness,
probably THE most important aspect of a utility like this.

The interesting number for gnome-calculator is the FIRST number: how
long it takes to be able to use the application from a cold start.  15s
is much closer to what I see, EVERY TIME I start gnome-calculator.

That's just... close to unusable.
