This is really not new for me; it seem to be about 10 seconds slower than it was a year ago. I just live with it.

AVG free has been told to exclude the Library folder (Task Manager does not show additional AVG activity, so I believe the exclusion took).

I probably have a sick piece of hardware as I see similar performance when boot into Ubuntu Oneric, it just does not show up on the diagnostics
(I suspect something in the DMA channel as there are just unexplained pauses)
