It's the default PHP session handler (file based by default).

In the admin console I got a lot of warnings:

I experimentally changed the session handler to SQL. That made the warnings
go away but failed to speed up horde.

I notice that no matter how complex the application I chose it always takes
about 5 seconds until an answer is recieved from the server. A little extra
delay for receiving the server's answer does vary from app to app.
Kronolith does some more communication after the initial screen is
displayed.

Disabling all caching did not change anything either.

I am not quite sure how fast Horde was in the first place. I stumbled over
a problem with horde-translation and ended up redoing the PHP and mySQL
installation.
