I'm not sure this is the same as bug 125100. I see this problem on Windows and
on Mac OS9. At random times it takes forever to open and the hard drive thrashes
like crazy. I can't seem to reliably reproduce it on either platform.

there is another problem.
If mozilla crashed and you relaunch it, mozilla deletes the whole disk cache 
because it's in an unkown state.

We will add a progressmeter for that.
