I'm pretty sure this was happening to *all* activities, not just Bounce. However, I tried the strace myself on 8.2.0 and was unable see the icon loads.

Replying to wadeb:

Actually, I saw it happening once but then couldn't reproduce.
I guess this happens because gtk cannot find the icon cache, so recreates it. This may have to do with rainbow. Maybe someone can check?

If it is rainbow specific - one should be able to easily find out by turning off rainbow and compare.

Can someone test this again on the XO?

Tested again on the xo, bounce v7, strace not reproducible closing.
From the parent bug:
"strace shows that Bounce opens and reads over 100 icons that it clearly doesn't need, from places like /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/battery-030.icon . (unexplored avenue: other activities may do this as well.) "
This could be an ugly performance issue, and given that we have intractable performance issues like Python Slowness, this could be a big win. Assigning to 0.84 to see if we can have a look, but I'm guessing we'll have to push it to 0.86. Maybe some intrepid soul can do the analysis here.
