  It's not computing or swapping. Plenty of memory and CPU time available. It's just Firefox doing its own disk I/O. I cleared history, and that didn't help.

    Ah.. No idea then. Windows debugging not my thing. I do know from a discussion w/ a Windows user that loading the same app (Microsoft Teams) took over a minute to load on his windows machine on an HD (and locked up most of the machine while doing so) - I did exact same comparison on my Linux machine and MS Teams loaded with all caches flushed in < 10 seconds, almost instantly with caching. I've encountered similar with Hedgewars and Minecraft. So maybe there's a real issue but us linux users simply aren't noticing it.. Another thought. Perhaps it is the sqlite db? Maybe a large one that somehow isn't getting vacuumed on shutdown? Maybe try testing in a clean profile...
