Start of Wireshark and opening of new capture file was very slow. During wait
time at startup no window was visible for long time. When capture file was
opened GUI was stuck for very long time. Same issue detected also on 1.2.1
version and SVN29270.
I debugged issue with own compilation of SVN29270 and it was caused by file
path at recent files pointing to non existing network drive. There was no
indication to user of the reason and only debugging was able to tell it.
In my opinion recent file list handling should not access network drives.
