I think I got it. It only happens when it displays the log window. I timed connection without logging at all, it was 22-23 secs (clear aliases and nat. vars enabled), then with logging to file, it was 23 secs again, and then with a log window. After 23 seconds passed it seemed to have connected and initialized everything but then instead of displaying the panels it starts displaying the log. Unlike the old version 3.5.6 I had which would display the log in real time the new version first keeps the log window empty but in the end dumps everything to it. It does it more quickly than 3.5.6 because of that but still not very fast (it's up to the computer). Ok, I would expect the panels then. But then, it pauses again, and I may suppose it is doing the connection job once again, because it takes about as long as the first time, even more, and once enough time has passed it displays all the same (absolutely the same, even the time, I made 2 files and compared them) log lines in the log window. Finally, it shows the panels. The time was 1:20. My home PC is old so it has much slower times but that doesn't matter. The time includes 2 connection times (23x2=46) plus log dumping times. Note that when it displays the 2nd log it does it noticeably slower than with the first log, literally line by line (again this is my home PC, at work things run faster, but the fact is 2nd log takes longer time).
When logging to file things are fine. The window log dump follows, just the 1st part (I translated 2 parts from Russian and removed unneccesary lines).
