Recently, Ive noticed that starting the game has been taking a very long time. I do't know if this is due to the launcher, or Wine taking a long time to get going. Times launching my three accounts:
1st account: Clicking on the account to character selection screen: 50 seconds. Selecting character to being in game: 15 seconds. 2nd account: Clicking on the account to character selection screen: 70 seconds. Selecting character to being in game: 30 seconds. 3rd account: Clicking on the account to character selection screen: 125 seconds. Selecting character to being in game: 40 seconds.
Total time to launch all three clients, and be able to do stuff: five minutes 30 seconds.
Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? Send me a bug report with LogLite logs, I'll look for the smoking gun. Start LogLite from the View menu of the launcher before starting the first account, then save it out after the last one is ready to play. Save the log and attach it to the bug report. Put my name in the title so it gets routed to me right away. Bug report EBR-90600 sent.

Do you start all clients simultaneously? If so, it might help to wait until the first client is on the character selection screen before starting the next account. If you are already doing that, I'm out of ideas, at least until I've done some more testing. I start them one by one. If I try to do them all at once, it's a sure lockup. I wait until I see my ship gliding into the bay before returning to the launcher to start the next client. "Selecting character to being in game: 40 seconds" means I wait 40 seconds between selecting my character and seeing my ship.

We have a repro case for the error messages I saw in your logs, and my theory is that they are the key to the issue. We're not seeing the same extreme delay you are experiencing, but that depends on more factors (connection speed, hard disk speed, CPU speed). I'll test some changes to address this internally tomorrow and if that pans out, we'll get a potential fix out to Singularity ASAP and have you test.
I appreciate your patience and your help in tracking down this issue.
Think about the GPU. For example: If I minimize each client before starting the next, the start times are the same for all three, and equal to the first one I gave above. Also: Once they are all started, my FPS, ships docked, is 4.0. If I minimize two clients, the remaining one runs at 13 FPS. (All settings as low as they go, except texture, set to medium.)
NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB
As its a MacBook Pro, I have no option to update the GPU. As its a 17" MBP, I do not wish to upgrade, as Apple does not make 17" MBPs any more.
The minimum specs say 320M, so I'm above the minimum. Maybe you need to take a look why the performance stinks with my GPU.

Its about the same:
First account: Launcher to character selection: 45 sec. Character selection to in-game: 25 sec. Second account: Launcher to character selection: 75 sec. Character selection to in-game: 35 sec. Third account: Launcher to character selection: 115 sec. Character selection to in-game: 50 sec.
FPS, all docked, all in hangar view: 4.0

Log_8_26_16 added as an attachment.
The word "exception" does not appear as often in it, so some things got better. Just not the speed.

This makes WINE fairly unplayable in the default mode. Is there some other way to get a right-click without using an external mouse? I assume you are using a trackpad? The two finger click does the secondary click. You can enable it in your trackpad preferences.
But.. command click is supposed to work too.
