Hello all,

Background paragraph:
I've recently acquired a second hand HP ScanJet 5300c to replace my now
broken ScanJet 6100c, and first of all ran into the same problems as bug
#474706. After some playing around, I managed to work around that by
adding both disable options to my avision.conf file. Bizarrely, this
only worked the second time I tried it, so when I have a little more
time (probably tomorrow) I'll try reproducing the problem, and if I can
I'll update that report.

However, starting xsane takes a huge amount of time. scanimage and
xscanimage do not suffer the same problem. It looks like the issue is to
do with the avision backend - I've attached a copy of my avision.conf
and the debug log from running "SANE_DEBUG_AVISION=255 xsane" to
illustrate the point.

The behaviour is that xsane briefly displays the scanning for devices
window, then removes it and partially draws the histogram window. Then,
a long delay occurs. Eventually, the preview window is drawn and another
delay of about the same amount of time occurs. The delay is the order of
a few minutes, probably about 3-4 minutes each stage (sorry, I've not
timed it exactly).

I'll try to investigate further when I get time, and will update this
report if I find anything that seems useful. Similarly, if there's
any particular information you'd like from me, just let me know and I'll
get it sorted out as soon as possible.

All the best,
- -Dave.
