E17 (Enlightenment) enters alpha after 12 years
Just tried this out and all I can say is WOW. Extremely fast, responsive and more eye candy than any other terminal emulator I've seen. Could this be the year of the E17 desktop?

I've never understood why Ubuntu takes a couple seconds to open a terminal window. I don't have a fast computer, but... it's a terminal window.

Try some lightweight terminal like sakura (my current preference) :)

Could it be your .rc files?

.rc files are default. Unless the defaults are what make it slow?

Or your .bash_history might be very large.
