Curious, I was experiencing similar delays with 2.20, but saw a significant improvement after upgrading to 2.22.2. This machine doesn't get restarted very often so I'm going from memory on this, but I believe the only remaining symptom I see now is that the startup progress window hangs around for a while. The delayed display of desktop items definitely improved for me after the upgrade. I haven't attempted to close a session during that phase of start-up, so I can't comment on that. Have you attempted to run "gdm-stop" from a command-line? I have no idea what exactly resulted in the improved behaviour. I did notice some "improvement" in the startup messages.
