I have SSDs, and GIMP for Windows starts up slower than Eclipse (!). In my experience the Linux version starts up faster than the Windows one.

- lucb1e 9y agoUp to a minute with SSD? Okay that's odd. I totally see your point.
- Momquist 9y ago> the Linux version starts up faster than the Windows one. Indeed. 4-5 secs to open GIMP on Linux here on HDD, and practically instant once cached. Maybe try and start with some command-line options. Useful ones in your case: -d, —no-data Do not load patterns, gradients, palettes, or brushes. Often useful in non-interactive situations where startup time is to be minimized. -f, —no-fonts Do not load any fonts. No text functionality will be available if this option is used. -s, —no-splash Do not show the splash screen. https://www.gimp.org/man/gimp.html https://www.gimp.org/man/gimp.html
