Not a dedicated one, no. But assuming your analysis is mostly correct, something along the lines of - What's the plasma startup performance with and without sycoca on a clean user - If much slower, try isolate which of the 3 parts are responsible - What's the startup performance if a user has done modifications like menu changes and user-environment installed apps/desktop files [a] - What happens when a user adds their own mimetype additions ? That could also be loading a folder with such files in dolphin or a 'save /open'-dialog I'm assuming this is mostly disk intensive operations, so a slow disk (spinning metal) is probably a good idea for that. I wonder if we should also try to get David Faure to look at this thread. /Sune [a] Isn't this even more likely in the world of flappacks and snacks and appimages and snaps and flatpaks and such
