Additional context I only have mods for stellaris, and that amounts to only 768 mods.

Mods on a harddrive or SSD? You do have a lot of mods and loading them should not really take so much time. What are the computer specs?

To just make sure it's not the AUR issue, can you try and download the portable and see if that makes a difference (although unlikely)?

Martmists-GH commented 9 months ago

Specs: NVME SSD (WD_BLACK SN770 2TB), 64GB RAM @ 4800 (DDR5), Ryzen 9 7900X @ 5.733

bcssov commented 9 months ago

Try the portable variant.

And I assume the mods are all located on an SSD?

Martmists-GH commented 9 months ago

All mods are located on that SSD, yes

The delay seems to be comparable, I think it's doing some loading on main thread as the popup asking for permission to check for updates was blank until the main application loaded.

Wayland, xWayland or x11?

I've been running this on Linux Manjaro with no big delays. The guy who made the AUR package did not report any delays. This seems to be related to your driver or hardware configuration.

You can try and adjust some of these linux related options and see if they help out: https://github.com/bcssov/IronyModManager/blob/6449b324a2f07e69ef97583687015ca52439a788/src/IronyModManager/appSettings.json#L12-L17

I've tested on Manjaro using xWayland, x11 and Wayland modes there was no slowdown in startup.

Martmists-GH commented 9 months ago

This is on x11 with i3wm, I'll give those settings a try.

Martmists-GH commented 9 months ago

I've reduced the amount of mods to ~200 and tried every combination of those settings, but nothing seemed to improve it.

bcssov commented 9 months ago

That many mods do not cause such a significant delay. The delay at most should be a few seconds. On my windows machine irony launches within 10 seconds with over 100 mods.

It is down to a framework and hardware, software or driver.

Have you tried these options I pointed out?

You can also try and enable very verbose framework logging so we can review the GUI framework output: https://github.com/bcssov/IronyModManager/blob/6449b324a2f07e69ef97583687015ca52439a788/src/IronyModManager/appSettings.json#L3

The UI thread as you said "hiccups" which in turn is caused by the framework I'm using. Maybe the upgrade to latest framework version would work in your case but that is not on the timeline yet.
