Hello

I did some more testing. None other programs (including VLC) takes more than 10 secondes to load, and do not freeze anything.
Calibre freeze all, including Windows clock display for a full minute.
I also tried to clear the 'prefetch' cache, and use 'Windows - Supprimer les DLL en cache.htm' to unload applications DLL after program exit by registry.
I got exactly the same result, 1 minute first time, 10 secondes next.
What worries me is not the waiting time, it is the fact that all other
application are dead for a full minute. It already caused a DVD creation
program to abort.
