when you click to open the menu, it'll check various directories to see
if they've changed (if so, the menu needs to be update).  there shouldn't
be a noticeable delay here, though.  if there's something on your system
that's touching these directories often, then the menu will get
regenerated often, and a 4-5 second delay is not uncommon.  to see which
directories are being checked (particular to your system), check the
files in ~/.cache/xfce4/desktop.
