- Install Linux and run it there - told to run much smoother there
- Install more RAM on your machine
- Delete c:\Documents and Settings\
\.fonts.cache-1 file - it causes another slow start when Gimp recreated it, then everything is faster.
- Uninstall un-needed brushes/fonts/etc
- Put gimp in your trusted applications under your virus scanner
- Change the short cut to ...gimp.exe -d -s [s does not load the splash screen - d does not load 'data' : font]
- Store brushes and such in a user folder rather than the programs folder
- Change the cache config option here: Toolbox> / Preferences / Environment / Resource Consumption
- Rename the plugins folder
- Access the space time continuum and hold it hostage

Running from an SSD, but still slow on fonts, so decided to disable windows font cache service. After that, fast startup.
