Both traces in that attachment are identical, except for the PID of the 
forked process on line 588. If it weren't for that, I'd have said that 
someone attached the same file twice by mistake.

They both indicate a fork(), a connection to D-Bus, setup, a call to the 
new application then a call to newInstance.

Without timestamps there's no way of telling whether there was a pause or 
not.
