I'm describing below an other test with the same physical host and virtual guest. I installed the xfce desktop environment (via tasksel) and I uninstalled all lxqt packages. I disabled the snap user service start (from the xfce session configuration panel). Then, the cold start of the deb package application is down in less than 2 seconds (better). Maybe de xfce desktop environment already loaded a few libraries (libgtk-3-0, ...). In addition, I measured the used memory (free -k) by comparing the "used" memory field before launch and a few seconds after the window appeared. With deb package application : 266 MB. With snap package application : 397 MB (+49%). It seems the deb package application saves memory because it is sharing the libraries with the other applications of the desktop. Note that I didn't count the used memory by the snap machinery (in case you wouldn't install snapd with a deb package application).
