Thanks, Bruno.

I tried your earlier proposal from July by making a startup entry like
this:

sh -c "sleep 15s ;/usr/bin/unity-scope-loader
applications/applications.scope applications/"

That didn't seem to make any difference, but now I've been using your
last workaround for about a week and it seems it cuts my Dash loading
time to two-three seconds. I'm not sure why or if there's been some
intermediate Unity update that hijacks the results. It seems to me that
the difference since last time is that now, you're loading two more
scopes:

/usr/bin/unity-scope-loader applications/applications.scope
applications/scopes.scope commands.scope

Care to explain why you made these changes?

Title:
  Unity Application Lens slow to load

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  WHAT HAPPENS
  ----------------------
  Log into the system
  Launch the dash with the 'window' key
  Start typing 'chr'...

  I see my files appearing in the search results
  The application lens results appear ~10 - 15 seconds later

  WHAT IS DESIRABLE
  ---------------------------
  The application lens results appear immediately

  
  Most users would login into the system and launch a web browser
  Optimal unity experience demands that their browser or mail client shows up in the dash instantaneously

  Also this behaviour has worsened recently (after upgrade to 12.04)
