The most obvious one to start with was kopete (sloooooooooooooow), so I straced (strace -s 500 -f kopete) and it hung on this:
11574 recvmsg(6, 0x7fffb90ddde0, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
11574 sendmsg(6, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\0\1\0\0\0\0\t\0\0\0o\0\0\0\1\1o\0\26\0\0\0/modules/networkstatus\0\0\6\1s\0\f\0\0\0org.kde.kded\0\0\0\0\2\1s\0\37\0\0\0org.kde.Solid.Networking.Client\0\3\1s\0\6\0\0\0status\0\0", 128}, {"", 0}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 128
11574 poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}], 1, 25000
It's hanging on handler 6, going up in the output I found what 6 is:
11368 socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0) = 6
11368 connect(6, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=@"/tmp/dbus-TNffZVatPK"}, 23) = 0
11368 fcntl(6, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR)
11368 fcntl(6, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
11368 geteuid() = 1000
11368 getsockname(6, {sa_family=AF_FILE, NULL}, [2]) = 0
Let's try to use dbus to contact kopete manually:
timothy@xps:~$ time qdbus org.kde.kopete Error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Everything works, more or less, but it's all extremely slow.
