Could it be that it accesses the path defined in the configuration element "import_folder"?
The first time I used it I used the "import Files..." dialogue, and imported files from an NFS mounted partition, which seems to have got that value set in the config.xml, and since then I have used the drag'n'drop functionality, but looking at the config.xml it seems the value wasn't changed.
I just created a new project and used the "import Files..." dialogue to set the location stored in the config to a local path, and now openshot starts fast again.

Assuming this is the root cause of the behaviour, suggested solutions:
1. Don't access the path defined in import_folder until "Import Files..." is clicked
2. Store the path from which a file was imported in the import_folder element even if it's added by drag'n'drop.

Title:
  Scan of filesystem on startup?

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  Every time I start up OpenShot it seems to do a non-trivial scan of my
  filesystem.  I notice it because I have NTFS shares from another
  server mounted on my desktop, and the first time I start OpenShot it
  causes the disks on the server (in the same room) to spin-up.  As this
  is a costly operation (scanning network servers with spun-down drives
  takes a few seconds!), I was wondering if it would be possible to not
  do such an invasive scan every time the application starts.
