Again "preparing you library" every time

This was discussed and resolved here, but I once again have the problem as before. Also, 6.9b3 seems a bit slower overall than 6.8
Startup issues need to be addressed...

No, it has not changed. "Preparing your library" should not be happening at every startup; if it does, that sounds like a bug.

I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.

Maybe - if you are not getting resource downloads you are expecting! Otherwise it's the older bug you refer to.

Without logs, we have no way of knowing.

Apparently this issue is not related to the problem of resources not downloading, since that one has been resolved for me and this one persists. I'm attaching a sampling of logs that I took during the startup process. 8510.LogosLogs.Reuben.20160123-063013.zip

There may have been some confusion from us in communicating on this issue, since it turns out there is a slight difference in behavior between Windows and Mac. For both versions of the application it is normal for the application to do some quick validation checks during startup. On the Mac version this causes the "preparing library" message to be immediately displayed. On Windows, that message isn't displayed unless it takes longer than a certain amount of time to complete. Under normal startup situations, the Windows application still does the same work, but the message is not displayed.
I do not see anything in your log files to indicate there is any kind of problem with your startup procedure.
There are a variety of normal things that can periodically cause the "preparing library" message to be displayed for a longer time. These include (but are not limited to) periodic optimization of some of the data that is stored for your library and updating a resource that was in use the last time an attempt was made to update.

Thanks for your response Andrew!

That makes sense because the last time after the issue was "resolved" there was still a slight blip of that screen, but nothing that would try anyone's patience. The current behavior is back to how it was before the last fix. It seems that the startup process needs some serious optimization. Perhaps, among other optimizations, the thread here should be taken from consideration to implementation?!

I understand and that's entirely reasonable, but in the current behavior the "preparing library" screen has nothing "periodical" about it. It shows for a few seconds every. single. time.
I think that perhaps it has to do with general sluggishness. At startup, according to my activity monitor, Logos fluctuates between 200 and 300+ percentage on CPU usage for at least 4.5 minutes. That's with a fiber-optic internet connection and a Macbook Pro with a NovaBench score of 1317.
