Seems unreasonably slow to me that xterm would take a second to start. My two computers running kernel 6.7 are slow than the machine in the test, both have BTRFS on LUKS.

I tried a cold start of xterm on my older thinkpad with an NVMe drive at ~0.3s.

A cold start on my desktop (also NVMe), 0.08s.

I’m unable to reproduce. I wonder if he might’ve had a fresh install with some background operations grinding on, or some indexing going on.
