gedit Loads Slow

After a recent Ubuntu install I was having a problem with gedit loading slowly. When I would open gedit, I would geta blank gedit window with no toolbar buttons or text area.

The way I fixed this issue was to disable the file browser pane plugin from Edit -> Preferences -> Plugins. Once I disabled the file browser pane plugin I was able to get gedit to startup faster, immediately even.

This works for gedit for windows too.
