Hi.
What would be the easiest way to run latex only once, from within vim,
please?
My .tex file is getting large and its compilation is not instantaneous
anymore. Furthermore, most of the time I only need to get a feel for
what the document will look like -- I wouldn't really need all the
ref
Try issuing:
:make %
rather than :make

That did it. (The minimum-effort solution :) Thanks!
Felipe.
PPS: what's the magic behind that percent sign? (I tried googling for
it, but it's hard to search without a keyword summarizing the concept).

If you try:
:set makecmd?
you'll see the make command that Vim-LaTeX sets. It includes a "$*" at
the end, which is substituted the argument passed to make.
Now, try:
:!echo %
You'll see that the name of the file you're editing will be substituted
for the "%".
