Public bug reported: I'm filing this bug separately because it appears to be distinct from #1063282, but the root cause may be similar.
when I start nautilus and it's not already running, it can take an extremely long time to start, up to even 2m before a file browser appears. as well, opening certainly locations (like the trash, or network shares) can also take another huge span of time before they complete.
