Exec=sleep 5 ionice -c 3 /usr/bin/git-annex assistant --autostart
This delays the start of git-annex for 5 seconds, letting the desktop get started, and forces git-annex to yield IO to other programs -preventing it from slowing them down by forcing them to wait for disk access. Since this is a background daemon with potentially high IO usage, but no need for quick responsiveness, perhaps that would make a decent default?
