Stef, try to disable write access on a fresh install to the PharoLauncher.changes and PharoLauncher.image

At least for me it seems that it stays fast now.

I use it just for images management (downloading, removing, renaming, recreating), I don't run actual programs from there. But `chmod a-w PharoLauncher.*` seems to work well for now.

Hi Peter, I see you had this problem 12 months ago.
http://lists.pharo.org/pipermail/pharo-users_lists.pharo.org/2015-February/017026.html

What you can try is in development mode, closing the PharoLauncher
window, nil out class variables and garbage collect, then check what
instances remain of PharoLauncher classes.

I use pharo launcer a lot (on windows) and I did not see any slow down.
But I don't use it for anything else then launching the images.
Do you notice the slow down by launching images or do you use the PharoLauncher image for anything else?
