Package: krita Version: 1:6.0.1.1+dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? Starting krita for the first time, the launch time on my computer was dramatically long (I tried Sid and experimental version). While the splash screen is present with "loading resources", there is no indication of progress. I believed first Krita was buggy and looping somewhere. Indeed, I had an old krita configuration .config/ and .cache/ that I removed to check for the "bug", and finally get things worse :-) I strace Krita. Krita reads every font files to cache it in its user's database (`strace krita 2&>1 | grep openat | grep font`). When you have several thousands of font files on a slow computer, it takes up to one second per font, thus tens minutes, may be close to the half an hour or more for me (as I interrupt/start it several times, krita was partially caching each time). I have an old CPU, a SSD for the system and the fonts, but an HDD for my home, for writing the user's database. I would change the writing in the splash screen to give an estimated time to complete the font caching: after measuring the time to managed the first 100 fonts, and counting the total number of fonts. * After the first launch, everything is fine Krita is a very nice tool for sketching and drawing. I am afraid this first launch could loose some users.
