Bug Description

I prefer to use the smaller Main Menu version the HUGE default Menu Bar. But the problem is the first time you click on Main Menu there is a substance lag before the menu pops up. There is no lag when using Menu Bar or on subsequent Main Menu access. Just the first one. This has been present for many releases.

This bug really exists for multiple releases. Where is this reported? Why is this bug invalid.

How to reproduce: Log in to Gnome, click on the Main/Ubuntu/Gnome menu button. Experience looooong seconds of delay before menu shows up.

Problems:
- It is utterly annoying, results in bad user experience.
- Unfamiliar users click multiple times. When the menu finally shows up, it's immediately hidden if the number of clicks was even. Users experience they can't open the menu.

Solution:
It should be pre-loaded/pre-populated upon startup of Gnome.
