(Get the code!)
This just started happening to me in Ubuntu jaunty; when bringing up a dialog in various Gnome apps, there is a twenty-five second delay before it appears, during which time the app appears to be frozen. I'm not sure if it affects every application, but I see it in various situations:
* bringing up the preferences dialog in Transmission
* bringing up a load or save file dialog in gedit
* bringing up a file dialog in GIMP
* bringing up a file dialog in Firefox
* etc
If I do an strace of the process, the delay appears to be in waiting for a poll() to time out immediately after a write that looks tracker-related. I'll attach a snippet of an strace log of Transmission after I try to open the preferences dialog -- you can clearly see the 25-second delay on lines 40-41.
Is there any additional information I can gather that would help figure out what's causing this?
