When `.Xmodmap` has a lot of entries, the keybindings for shortcuts load very long after login (it reacts after a minute or so). After I changed the bindings to a single one, it loads quickly. Manual loading 255 entries via `xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap` works fast. Unverified assumption: keybindings are reloaded with every line xmodmap reads.
Please attach the .Xmodmap file so that it can be used to reproduce this issue.

I gave it a try and was able to trigger the bug.
> Manual loading 255 entries via `xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap` works fast. It may seem to finish fast, but there is the same heavy work done in the background for several seconds.
Maybe this should be forwarded to the xmodmap maintainer. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xmodmap
Potential fix in bug 15032.
