On my machine (Phenom X4, openSuSe 11.3) Inkscape 0.48.1 takes 55 seconds to start.
In the meantime, there's one thread at 100% processor load, and shortly before it finishes, I get this line in the console:
over and over again, for several screen pages.
... after that all works fine.
This might be an unrelated problem, but it has been bugging me for a while, and it was not there when I started using inkscape.
I only installed five or so fonts in addition to the ones that came with the system, but I just looked it up and it seems I have ... 1971 different fonts installed (I think that's counting italic and bold as separate fonts, though)!
If systems come with such an amount of fonts, maybe there's a way to change Inkscape's way of dealing with them?
