It just seems to break.
That seems to indicate that maybe it's not that there's a single offending program, but just a collection large enough to have an impact. Next time you log in, hold the SHIFT key down, which will prevent programs from loading (or in reality, preloading). If this dramatically reduces the load time, that may be a sign that you'll need to reduce the number of programs you allow to start up, upgrade your hard drive and RAM, or learn to live with the problem.
