GNOME upstream for 3.5/3.6 have decided to enable accessibility by default, which means at-spi2 is always going to be running, hense why trying to disable it from startup applications does nothing. It needs to be hidden from startup applications, but the startup file is still needed for other desktop environments which still enable accessibility selectively.
Is this adversely affecting the performance of your system? I get the same thing here on Quantal, and all those at-spi directories only take up 1.7MB or so. If you are not using orca or other assistive technology tools, then you shouldn't notice any difference.
