I think you may be missing the point of my message and of this thread. The
same version of Gnucash loading the same file takes 1/2 the time to start on
a Gentoo system than it does on FreeBSD, where Gentoo is running on slower
hardware than FreeBSD. There is clearly something slowing Gnucash startup on
FreeBSD, as Antonio and Derek have discussed. Your history of slow Gnucash
startup with unknown file sizes on slow hardware sheds no light on that
issue, not to mention your problems with OO and Firefox.
