This is probably just GIMP taking a long time to load fonts, which doeshappen after up-grading the OS.
It hasn't actually crashed, even though the window greys-out and OSX mightcomplain that GIMP is not responding, the font loading is still going onand you just need to be patient.
Another user has recently been through the same thing with OSX 10.11 asreported here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756092The real problem is the ridiculous number and size of fonts which are beingincluded with Windoze and OSX nowadays.

The usual advice given on the forums now is just to start Gimp running andthen leave it alone - don't even touch the keyboard or the mouse, just getup, walk away and go do something else for at least an hour. (Yes, really!)When you come back, Gimp will probably be up and running and you will thenhave no further problems.

So, if you have the patience, perhaps you could actually keep an eyeon your computer while GIMP is loading the first time (read the newspaperor something) and hopefully tell us approximately how long it does take.is it 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, longer ?

Not that I can find.
Download grab tool for mac. As for only loading when you use the tool, that will slow you down tremendously.
A possible work around is to save the fonts you use frequently as presets in the Text tool.

This is normal the first time launching GIMP with OS 10.11.6. After that it should be much faster unless you are loading a very large file. I just launched GIMP—5 seconds. Loading one of my 16MB files takes 30 seconds. May take a bit longer on a 2008 MacBook Pro, mine is mid 2010.

About the same here (Mageia Linux, GIMP git master/2.9), 5 or 6 secondsto start GIMP. It'd be faster if i had fewer than 8,500 fonts installedprobably. It just took 45 seconds to load a 1.6GByte PNG file, althoughI was unable to load a 4.1G xcf file (GIMP said the file was corrupt).
But (1) I'm on Linux and (2) GIMP 2.8 starts in 3 seconds, and (3) Ihave 32G of RAM.

Help With OSX El Capitan
I'm using El Capitan (10.11.6) and it takes 3 minutes for GIMP to load my fonts when I open the program for the first time AFTER THE COMPUTER HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN. Quiting GIMP and then re-opening it thereafter takes just seconds to get up and running.
I have 316 fonts installed and have disabled half of them in Font Book. This makes them unavailable in all my apps – except GIMP! I don't understand this but I'm not too bothered.
Note for Windows Users: This page is for installation help for the Unix version of GIMP. If you need help with the installation of Windows GIMP, see the GIMP for Windows page.
Requirements¶
Main Requirements¶
Well, it is necessary to have a C compiler and related tools to compile and install the source package. For the most part, GCC is recommended, but a lot of effort has gone into making GIMP compile with as many compilers as possible.
A fair amount of disk space is needed too. For a full build with debugging, at least 200 megs free is recomended. Without debugging and with static libs turned off, GIMP can be compiled in 20-30 megs of space. This will vary depending on architecture of course. A full GIMP install including all the gimp-data packs can be 20 megs or more.
A full compile of the stable version takes 1-2 hours on a PPro 200 or K-6 200 with 64 megs of RAM. On a P4 or Athlon with 256 megs of RAM, a build can take 20-30 minutes. In general, expect about 3-4 times as long as a Linux kernel 2.2 compile (for GNU/Linux systems of course). In other words, its a long compile. That’s what 300,000+ lines of code get you.
Stable version (2.2.x)¶
- A recent version of pkg-config is needed and you can grab them at https://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/
- GTK+ 2.4.4 or better (Gimp Toolkit). The GIMP toolkit can be found at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/GTK+ 2.4.4 also needs the following packages. (Either the version listed or newer)
- GLib 2.4.5
- Pango 1.4.0
- ATK
- PangoFT2 a Pango backend that uses FreeType2 (Make sure you have FreeType2 installed before installing Pango). Downloads can be found at https://www.freetype.org/
- libart2 Grab the module libart_lgpl out of GNOMECVS or fetch the tarball from ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/libart_lgpl/
GIMP Compilation and Installation¶
After grabbing the GIMP Download tableau 10.5 mac. distribution, you are ready to compile and install. The main site for the latest offical GIMP distribution is https://download.gimp.org/pub/gimp/ but you should consider using one of the mirrors listed on the download page.
GIMP makes use of the Gimp Toolkit (GTK+) and other libraries that must be installed first. Look in Requirements above to find out more.
Compile as a normal user using: ./configure && make and then as root make install
If all goes well, a good while later, you will have a brand spanking new GIMP to play with. Unfortunately, it has been rumored that it isn’t always that easy. So, here are a few common problems and some solutions …
For some more specific info, you may want to read the INSTALL file from the main GIMP distribution. Legacy site survey analyzers for mac os x 10.7.5.
Other Packages¶
Print plug-in does not compile¶
Starting with version 1.2.4, the print plug-in depends on libgimpprint, which is now distributed as a separate package. The previous versions of GIMP (up to 1.2.3) included all files as part of the GIMP distribution, but you should now download and install libgimpprint 4.2.6 separately from the Gimp-Print site:
Once the lib is compiled and installed, run ldconfig as root and the print plug-in should compile.
JPEG plug-in does not compile¶
The jpeg plug-in requires the jpeg library. If you don’t have it installed or you have a very old version, then you need to get a recent jpeg library. The places to look are:
Once the lib is compiled and installed, run ldconfig as root and the jpeg plug-in should compile.
TIFF plug-in does not compile¶
The tiff plug-in requires the tiff library. See the jpeg problem mentioned above. Same deal, different lib. Odin3 free download for mac. The places to look are at:
Once the lib is compiled and installed, run ldconfig as root and the tiff plug-in should compile.
PNG plug-in does not compile¶
Gimp 2 10 Won't Download Mac Mojave
The png plug-in requires libpng and libz (zlib). See the jpeg problem mentioned above. Same deal, different lib. The places to look are at:
Once the lib is compiled and installed, run ldconfig as root and the png plug-in should compile.
XPM plug-in does not compile¶
The xpm plug-in requires the xpm library. See the jpeg problem above. Same deal, different lib. The places to look are at:
I have no SVG support¶
Gimp 2 10 Won't Download Mac Torrent
SVG support requires at least version 2.2 of the rsvg library from gnome.org. This can be found at:
