Describe the bug
When no "telemetryUuid" is in .carta-beta/config/preferences.json then the stand-alone electron version we use takes 2.5 minutes to start up. That seems to also have been the case with a remote usage without the electron app. It also happens when there is no telemetry switched on "telemetryMode": "none". Once a telemetryUuid is set, any ID, e.g.
"telemetryUuid": "1",
the start-up time drops to about 5 seconds.

The process hangs on the frontend after 'compute modules loaded'.

This may be only an issue with our set-up as reported per mail before.

To Reproduce
Set .carta-beta/config/preferences.json to
{
"$schema": "https://cartavis.github.io/schemas/preferences_schema_2.json",
"lastUsedFolder": "",
"telemetryConsentShown": true,
"telemetryMode": "none",
"version": 2
}
start CARTA beta4 backend and frontend.

Expected behavior
Startup within 5-10 seconds

Platform info (please complete the following information):

• OS RHEL8
• electron app, but also Firefox
• Version 4.0.0-beta.1
