I probably have a different but similar issue to yours, but just in case
it helps either of us: In my case the gnome 3 desktop takes about 1
minute to start up after X is loaded. I've read that it's PulseAudio
trying to make network connections and timing out. See here:

  The suggested fix is to move your configs, then start turning off
various pulseaudio sinks and modules, but i have not investigated this
heavily.

If i run into something more helpful i'll post it here.
