Well, I finally spent some quality time with Mr Google, and here's what 
worked for me. It was [expletive deleted] Nepomuk.

In Settings / System Settings, click "Desktop Search". I had Nepomuk 
turned off, but some disabled checkboxes were still selected. Select the 
first checkbox, then deselect the others, then deselect the first one 
again. Also make sure that all the checkboxes on the "Indexing" tab are 
deselected.

I did this on both desktop machines, then cold-booted them both several 
times to make sure. When the KDE desktop appears, the K menu is 
immediately responsive.

Nepomuk must die! die! die!
