How many files do you have in your ~, your ~/Desktop and your ~/Desktop/Downloads? I think it's many just like on my systems. Using a debugger I saw it querying all those dirs for files and then after 20 seconds it shows up with the main ggv window.

I agree, this needs to be improved. Seems the last version is a bit buggy (or it would be a libxml2 bug, since that one has changed in API a while ago and dorphell updated it last weekend)

I do not have much files in ~ and ~/Desktop. Everything is sorted into subdirectories... :>

And as I mentioned, I had not this problem with the same file setup before world upgrade.

But you are right; ggv starts after "some" time is passed...

It's a bug in ggv, they have changed something in the monitoring code that uses gnome-vfs now, and guess what, it's b0rken :P

I will revert this piece of code to the previous version and file a bug upstream.

Edit:
* src/recent-files/*: updated to latest libegg.
That would be the problem, I'll look into it. Also found some double free stuff when opening an HTTP URL.

It's something with your recent file list that gets scanned.
