What did you do to your computer? My 5 year old Ryzen desktop opens the Arduino IDE in ~1.5 seconds.

I can screencast it, but it's actually consistent even across OSes.

My top of the line macbook, with a fresh arduino 2.0 ide install on MacOS, is the same way.

Meanwhile, literally everything else works great.

I had something similar, I thought Arduino IDE was crazy slow, but then switched laptops and it was crazy fast. Not that the new laptop was more expensive or a lot newer, just different.

I blame windows stuff I guess, it's definitely not just CPU power

I mean, I'm on Linux, but I really wouldn't expect the JDK performance to be that different between operating systems.
