Nothing to do with the size of the profile. The underlying gecko toolkit
we are now based on doesn't actually support dynamic switching of
profiles the way XPFE/SeaMonkey 1.x did. What we now do is to fake it by
doing a silent restart into the selected profile.
So what you are actually seeing is a very fast restart rather than a
very slow profile switch.
From the user's POV we're seeing a very long delay vs. a short delay. Not
complaining, but your answer sounds a lot like "we're doing it now in a much
less efficient way, but look how fast we do it." Like recoding a bubble sort to
use multiple threads (I knew someone who did that).
