Just to clarify: the trace also includes loading of the game itself (which
takes a long time too) as well as in-game menu navigation. Loading the in-game
menus (especially the options) takes a long time too so it *could* be related.

I quit the game after about 1 minute of play time so the last one to two
minutes of the trace should be the actual game.

Thanks for looking into it!
