This is indeed strange, and may be the cause of your slow loading of 
Audacity etc. I'm on Debian and have zero plugins in /usr/lib64 . I 
suggest moving all the duplicate plugins to a temporary space and try 
loading Audacity and maybe initiating a manual scan for Ardour and any 
other programs that host plugins.

Audacity here loads in a couple of seconds.

I do the same. System-installed plugins end up in /usr/lib/ and 
downloaded ones go manually into ~/.lv2 (or ~/.vst3 , ~/.vst etc.). 
Currently have 168 plugins in /usr/lib/ , mainly GX plugins, and 77 in 
~/.lv2/.
