Description
WP 3.4 will be very snappy. It is a shame that this is not true of the theme module that is still extremely sluggish for no reason. I think it should be optimised before the final release.
Since all other modules are extremely fast (very well done!!!), it is a shame the theme module is so slow. For this reason I set it as a major issue.

Could you clarify a bit as to what you mean by the theme module? Perhaps steps to access it and which bits are sluggish?
In the admin area I can click on Posts, Media, Pages, etc, they all load in an instant, however, when I click on Appearance it takes a very long time to load.
It is in reality the Themes link that load very slowly.

Okay. This is related to #20933. On each themes.php hit, we run an update check. Clearly, yours are broken. So it is trying to make an HTTP request that ends up timing out. Thus, the page is super-slow.
We don't currently cache API failures. I think we probably should temporarily do so, for themes.php. Perhaps something we can do in 3.5.

How can my installation be broken? I had 3.4RC2 and I upgraded it to RC3 this morning.

It's either your install or your server. Re-install 3.4-RC4. If it doesn't work, temporarily re-install 3.3.2. If it doesn't work, it's your server.

I also have 3.3.2 installed and it works fine. Is RC4 available? I have only seen RC3.

OK, what I did was I ran the upgrade to the latest nightly build a few times. I then cleared the browser's cache and cookies. Now the Themes section seems to load a lot faster. The upgrade process may have had a glitch...

Sounds like it, yep. Thank you for taking the time to investigate this. I imagine #20933 is also solved for you.
