Gullible Jones Registered Member Posts 121 Karma 0 OS	Splash screen slows down KDE startup Wed Sep 28, 2011 5:31 pm Again on my laptop (Acer Aspire 3680)... Startup time with splash screen: 13 seconds Startup time without splash screen: 9 seconds This is quite consistent. It looks like the splash screen causes some delay...

I will also say though that even with the splash screen turned off, KDE's first startup (i.e. after a reboot) is very slow. KDE3 used to start in about 2 seconds after a cold boot.
