Gwenview 2.8.4 and previous versions; KDE 4.8.4 and previous versions; Firefox 19 and previous versions. When opening a file on a webpage with official Firefox and selecting 'Open with...' > Gwenview, Gwenview at times takes a very long time to open the temp file. I can see that it's been downloaded nearly instantly. Restarting Firefox or Gwenview doesn't resolve this. Restarting my computer does solve this for a temporary amount of time. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Keep computer running for a while (currently 34 days) 2. Click an image link in Firefox, select Open With > Gwenview 3. Wait a long time to see that image. Actual Results: Gwenview opens after about 90 seconds but the actual image doesn't open for a much longer time. Expected Results: Gwenview opens quickly and displays the image upon opening. strace will be attached shortly. This has been an issue for over a year now with various previous versions of KDE and Gwenview, and both Mozilla Firefox and Debian Chromium browsers.

I've cleared out my ~/.kde/ folder a few months ago in an attempt to resolve this and other issues. This one still remains.
