Read my lips.  This delay to display MY account, which I am watching 
every time it happens, ONLY happens right after login.  Whatever Finder 
or anything else is doing with the desktop after that is not detectably 
affected by the number of icons.

And before 10.9, it wasn't affected at login either.
