Terminal has this smart feature that only one process is running, regardless of how many terminals one opens.
This causes startup time to be reduced drastically, naturally.

But when I close the last terminal, xfce4-terminal exits and I have to wait multiple seconds again when I open a fresh Terminal when the system is under heavy load.

It would be nice for Terminal to have a "daemon mode" (like rxvt), constantly running in the background. 

Reproducible: Always

it had a quake-style mode now, which also acts as a daemon for the normal windows.
