Public bug reported:

Almost every time I try to launch Nautilus – whether via the panel, via
the terminal, or by clicking "Open" buttons in programs – it takes close
to 1 minute to launch. I have timed it using a watch, and it seems to
take between 30 seconds and 1 minute from the relevant button is pressed
before Nautilus appears on screen.

This has been occurring for months. I think it started occuring after
updating to Ubuntu 20.10, but I no longer remember precisely. I guessed
it was a known issue that would be fixed, or just an issue specific to
my setup, but now I am beginning to wonder whether I am facing some kind
of true bug. All my hours of Google-fu and poking around the system has
turned up nothing useful. In contrast to e.g. #1886021, there are no
error messaged in the terminal that give any hints. Nor are there
anything useful in the syslog – at least that I am able to spot.

Given how infuriating it is to always have to wait for 30+ seconds to
open any file dialog, I am very willing to help debug this. But I have
now reached the limits of my (admittedly limited) debugging abilities.
