Erratic slow login Win2k3 from XP SP2 - Profile GPO issue log usel

On our network login times can vary for no obvious reason, from 2 to 10
minutes. This appears to be an issue with either Group Policy processing or
user profile. This appears to be slowest for the first login during the day,
if the box is rebooted during the day the login time is fine, 30 sec to under
2 minutes.
I have logged data in UserEnv.log and it shows that GPO processing seems to
occur quickly, without error. There are long delays in processing the profile
and a mystery unaccounted for section in the log.
This problem is driving me crazy. How the hell can I identify profile
corruption/timeout or GPO timeout issues easily during login?
I have logged log in event using Group Policy core (UserEnv) and registry
CSE logging in %windir%\debug\usermode\UserEnv.log. Set registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon and
add value UserEnvDebugLevel = REG_DWORD, value 30002.
I logged a client with a login delay, from entry of user name and password
to executing Outlook as Startup program in the profile which covered 8
minutes 2 seconds. a long time to get a usable desktop.
I have used SysInternals Process Monitor (ProcMon.exe) to log during boot
up, but the log is vast and I have not found any useful data in it.
I have simplified the UserEnv.log output below.
