As far I'm concern= ed evolution is out of my list of programs, I still have my doubts about th= e real reason as to why it takes so long to open. In reality there's no re= al reason as to why a program will take so long to open, if that's the case= evolution will loose a lot of users in the FreeBSD community. You're free to build Evolution and e-d-s with debugging symbols, and watch it load in gdb if you don't believe me. Last time I did this, I found most of the time spent in the loader. Any optimizations would certainly be welcome.
