> It should only happen once, unless plugins need to be refreshed. The thing is that GetPluginInfo message is sync, so there's little we can do I guess. Maybe we can get plugins info in a thread at startup to make sure plugins info are cached in the UI process asap. I wonder if other ports do something like that or GetPluginInfo is just faster.

Another idea I had was to cache plugin information based on path, so that when you start the process again it doesn't block.
