            Bug ID: 441389
           Summary: [Feature Request] Make KDE start faster
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: tobias at g3ro.eu
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Hello,
the start time of KDE is very long (50-60s).

In comparison other DEs such as XFCE, Cinnamon and Gnome start significantly
faster (10-30s).

I would like to request improvements in this sector.

Some general ideas are:

- options for a delayed start of specific services etc. (if that is even
related to the problem)
- decreasing file sizes (of e.g. config files, icons etc.; whatever is loaded
during start) (as this problem seems to be related to harddrive access)


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Login in the Display Manager
2. Wait 

EXPECTED RESULT
Faster start.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

Kernel-Version: 5.10.60-1-lts
Graphics-Platform: X11

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have already tried different options etc., but nothing changes much.

Others are also reporting this problem and it seems "normal".
At least on HDDs.
