Sorry, but I can't agree your conclusion.

As you alredy know, appmenu-gtl-module watches for the old types menu (ie., GtkMenuShells and GtkMenuItems) and exports the GMenuModel implementation.

I don't know. I found this solution in the bug report linked above, and it worked for me.

Why does this function serve to speed up of app's start, I wonder?

I have no idea why it is working.

With what app did you get the above conclusion?

The applicatioin I use is Pale Moon (palemoon) web browser, 29.4.2.1 gtk2 version. Available here: http://linux.palemoon.org/download/mainline/ I would try other gtk2 applications as well, but I could not find any in the repos.

libxmlb does serve to speed up of app's start, I confirmed again. This requires caching, though.

I have these two libxmlb pacakages installed: rpm -qa | grep -i libxmlb libxmlb2-0.2.1-1.34.x86_64 libxmlb1-0.1.11-3.2.1.x86_64 Still without setting $GTK_MODULES=appmenu-gtk-module the application starts only after a 25 seconds timeout passed. (More accurately, the gtk2 window appears after 25 seconds.) There is no such problem with gtk3 applications, their window appears immediately. Any explanation? Thanks, Istvan
