Something you could try is to delete all the .kde* files from your
~/home/yournamehere/ directory as well as and files in the /tmp that
have DCOP or .KDE-YOURNAME in them - then after that, try starting KDE
again...

It could be several things - path statements, lib path statements or
environmental variables that cause KDE to "lag" when starting up...try
the above resolution and see if that fixes ya.

History is curious stuff
        You'd think by now we had enough
Yet the fact remains I fear
        They make more of it every year.
