With a complete xfce4 installation on a dual P-III 1GHz system 1GB of RAM, it takes 7:24 to start an Xfce4 session with this patch applied. If gtk+ is installed without the patch, the same login takes 0:21. Further individual Xfce4 applications consume 100% CPU while starting. Terminal takes 0:49 to start with the patch vs. < 0:02 without >How-To-Repeat: Install and use an Xfce4 desktop >Fix: Remove ports/x11-toolkits/gtk20/files/patch-gtk_gtkiconcache.c and reinstall GTK+ >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
