LOL. On my work computer (which is no slouch), it takes something like two or three minutes to actually be usable, where it's frozen, saying "not responding." gvim, on the other hand, starts instantly.

Yeah that >30 seconds was probably being generous. It's quite rare to see <60.

Sorry, I was wrong, below 2 seconds, measured using Passmark AppTimer:

Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate - 5 executions
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe - 5 executions
1.3741
1.2808
1.3419
1.2802
1.3440

Loading a complex C# solution (11 projects - ASP.NET web server, Silverlight client, Android client, various libs, 60 kloc) - 9 seconds.

Windows 10 64 bit, Intel Core i7 3612QM, 16G RAM, SSD.

Now, comparing this to the timings you posted, I understand why you prefer to use the command line and text editors. Me, I don't have *any* reason to go back in time 20 years ago, I hate that black & white thing on my screen.
