As I said, this behavior I notice with a updated LV2 core and not 
updated naspro-bridges.
With updated naspro-bridges, I receive just a single error message.

But, the slow down on start-up a host application, eg. scan the world, 
is "horrible", even with updated naspro-bridges. And even more notable 
is, the slow down of a single plugin load. That is horrible, updated 
naspro-bridges, or not, with lv2-dev 1.10.0 and libliv-dev 0.20.0, 
naspro-bridges becomes unusable.
