Is it possible to "pre-load" Spectacle? Like, I think, LibreOffice can do so
the apps open faster

Quoting from that bug:
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3)

I would say that that's not even the issue at play. I've just tried opening
Spectacle and then selecting the rectangular region tool. It still takes ~2
seconds for Spectacle to capture the screenshot. It seems that there is a flaw
(for lack of a better term) deep into Spectacle which makes it very slow,
whether you use the system-wide shortcut or you try to capture screenshots when
the program is already open and therefore (theoretically, at least) ready to
run.
I hope this can help narrow down the issue.

kde in general seems inordinately affected by IO, but particularly spectacle

the SSD in my laptop is capable of 200-300MB/s reads, but even a mere 30MB/s
will have `spectacle --version` taking ~30s

even on a NVME drive, this behaviour happens
