BlackBox slow

I have an older ThinkPad notebook with FreeBSD 5.3. I use BlackBox 
window manager, which is great, but it takes it around 40 seconds to 
start up. TWM starts in 15 seconds and Gnome in 40 too. I have something 
like this in .xinitrc:

xsetroot ... &
xhost ... &
bbkeys ... &
blackbox

and it doesn't change much if I add or remove a line. What is your 
experience with BlackBox? Is there a BB clone without slit and taskbar 
or something like that?
