It takes about 20 seconds for Hoster to load too.

Version 4 does take a little longer to load than previous versions because of the added functions.
However, what did you use for registry cleanup? I use a program called System Mecahnic. It does a great job of stripping out garbage from the registry without chancing a mistake that stops programs from working. It will also defragment the registry, remove hidden temporary files and a whole lot more. First time I used it I was amazed how much faster my 5 year old XP computer ran.
Are you song files on an internal or external drive?
Billyo is right you need to see what other background processes are running and see if anything is hogging the processor time.
