Interestingly, in natty-alpha3 newer, the gnome-panel Main Menu comes up instantly, scrolling works well, only editing remains tedious. Of course natty uses the unity-panel-desktop-and so on. may not be fully integrated with natty? So gnome-panel must be added to auto-start, then add the

@BavarianPH: it seems that there are people in the project who interpret any negative statement about Ubuntu, or any positive statement against one of its 'avowed enemies' as 'heresy' and use that to 'punish' the 'heretic' who dared to utter it. This happens in the forums - which I no longer use

running maverick, main menu still takes about 7-10 seconds to open after any boot-up or reboot. I do not like most Microsoft Windows OSs or apps. I do like the start-up menu, it's fast and changed or edited like any other shortcut links, and even on the fly. Why not use what works best, and is

I am also able to confirm that on 10.04 desktop and netbook this problem is present. It's very noticeable on older 4600 and 5400rpm drives where you can wait up to and even over 35 seconds for it to appear. A non-programmer solution to this problem would be to have the menu stored in a cache

This bug was submitted 5 years ago. So I think it will be not resolved so fast. I suggest to add some aditional information during first click (wait cursor). It is very easy to add this feature. I think it will be very useful for beginner user, for example my friend who installed Ubuntu and he

After switching my hard disk to a solid state disk (Intel X-25M G2) this bug disappeared. This supports the assumption that the delay is caused by accessing lots of files on the hard disk as a task like this benefits considerably from the low access times of a solid state disk. -- GNOME Main

For me, the delay is unappreciated, less than a sec (~ 0.5s). I think the next will improve the behavior: I've edit (create) ~/.gtkrc-2.0, adding gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0 I'm sure that there is no problem when you have Menu Bar loaded into the panel too, so you can put the Main

I just noticed for me the other applets are also running slow. For example I have Tomboy Notes and when I opened the Manage Notes window I noticed that it's menus were acting slow too. Therefore I think all these things are linked. The GUI interface (not sure what it is) eg gtk, qt... is the thing

I can confirm this in Hardy and Karmic. VERY annoying bug. More noticeable on a laptop than a desktop as laptops are turned on and off so often; laptops are also slower to find and show the icons. I tried Karl Martin's xautomation fix but it didn't work, possibly because the menu isn't yet
