The users do not have a roaming profile and I think your
right it's loading up the users profile that is taking
long. It's in the part where it reads, "Applying computer
settings.."
I was assuming it's the authentication because that's the
process that occurs in that moment, right after you enter
your password and hit enter.
I may be mistaken.

Thanks
