Comment(by phobos):

 My tbb debug log is at http://zombiewerks.com/tmp/ticket4732-tbb-
 debug.log.gz

 There is a 90 second lag between when the onion icon goes green and the
 aurora browser window appears on my desktop.

 According to strace, firefox is doing this the entire time:
 {{{
 read(4, 0x7f99e44a0074, 4096)           = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
 unavailable)
 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7,
 events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=12,
 events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=9,
 events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=30, events=POLLIN}, {fd=22, events=POLLIN}],
 9, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}])
 read(5, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16)         = 8
 write(23, "\372", 1)                    = 1
 }}}
