[Samba] Roaming Profiles Load Very Slowly

[Gar Nelson]

Another alternative from /home, as root;

# how big are the profile directories
du --max-depth=2 | grep profile | sort -nr

# where are the big offenders?
du --max-depth=3 | grep profile | more

I agree with the java cache being a likely suspect if "Application Data" 
is still being loaded via the roaming profile.
