Hey guys,

This bug is a bit harder to define. All I know is, the latest version of
Xboard from the Ubuntu repository (4.4.2-1) starts up just about instantly,
takes maybe half a second. The latest xboard from master on git, however,
takes a good 10 seconds on average, during which time the CPU load spikes to
100% and slows down the entire machine. After those 10 seconds it suddenly
snaps back to reality and performs perfectly. However, this extremely laggy
and intrusive startup is bothering me.

Here are the things I've tried:
 - Compiling with and without Xaw3d. No difference.
 - Running with and without my custom xpms. No difference.
 - Running in and out of engine mode. No difference.

The only thing that seems to make a difference is to go back to the binary
shipped with Ubuntu; but I'd prefer to stay with the latest version and help
with testing, etc. I've attached my .xboardrc but it looks normal to me; the
only change I made is the pixmapsDirectory, but it still happens if I get
rid of that too.

Thanks, guys!
-Adrian
