Might this be the reason?

Have you tried prelink?

Yeah, been thinking you might have some bad linkage... Some apps might be statically linked while they should be dynamic and vice-versa.

Did you actually follow exactly the manual when installing? Got no broken /etc (etc-update)?
|
I ran etc-update recently. I ran it again:
| Code: |
golem / # etc-update
Scanning Configuration files...
Exiting: Nothing left to do; exiting. :)
|
If there is still something wrong with my etc-files, I don't know what could cause the problems I am having.

Do you have a hostname set on both systems?

Yes, I have.

I guess you want me to build some packages statically. I'll post the results soon.

I thought about that myself and ran an exorcism program: didn't help. So if if's evil, it's a nasty kind of evil. |

The evil gets a face:
I built a statically linked emacs and it started without delay.

Things are getting real weird. I chrooted from my SuSE partition to the gentoo partition
and built a statically linked emacs ( I added -static to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS). This one started quickly. At that time I wrote my former post. Then I booted gentoo, the static emacs started slowly. I built it again and it didn't improve. I booted SuSE again and remembered that I
forgot to bindmount dev and proc to the gentoo tree, the time I built the first static emacs.
So I built it again chrooted to /mnt/gentoo with dev and proc bindmounted: slow; then with /mnt/gentoo/proc umounted: slow; with both umounted: fast; with /mnt/gentoo/proc mounted: fast. I noticed that also the ordinary emacs started fast. I bindmounted dev: both started quickly;I exited, chrooted to gentoo again: everything wonderful. I exited, booted gentoo and I had my startup problem back. Even more strange: Booted back SuSE, I cannot build a fast static emacs (chrooted to gentoo, of course) no matter what I try. |

I emerged prelink; it didn't help.
I built emacs and bash statically on my SuSE system, copied them to /mnt/gentoo, started a chroot with the static bash and started the static emacs: It took again 5 sec. Does this rule out any bad linkage? |

It has now become really odd...
You sure you compiled them with right CFLAGS? Also, what GCC version did you use?

I don't think that this is becoming odd. I noticed that Gentoo has become slower & slower for me as well. I can't prelink because certain binaries won't work anymore [kdeinit can't be found or something like that]. I think that Gentoo might be becoming bloated in some sort of way.
I've basically unset every USE variable, yet it all starts so slow. Everytime I upgrade, the boot up pauses in more & more places. I'm beginning to hate Gentoo. I'm trying to avoid complaining, though. That's not my point. I mention these negative things for the sake of emphasis.
Disclaimer: I'm not an expert, but I'm not a newbie either.
I looked @ that fellows configurations [except .config because it takes so long, & I wouldn't know any better], & they all seem to look good. For my own computer, I noticed that my "emerge info" output didn't match the portage version that was most recently emerged.
I wonder if this has anything to do with devfs. Did anybody try running Gentoo without it?
This whole thing is becoming messier & messier.

My problem is gone! Well, I formatted my gentoo partition and build everything anew from stage1 and without any CLAGS. Not an obvious step to do, I had gentoo installed three times from scratch and I always faced the problems I mentioned. But this time it worked, don't ask me why.
Thanks to you, Neonik, and all of you, who gave me advice. Without your compassion, I might not have tried another install and so my gentoo experience would have ended here.
