Have you tried the advice at http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Keep_folds_closed_while_inserting_text ? It's obviously not originally meant to speed things up, but has that nice side effect. The FAQ actually menions this: http://vimhelp.appspot.com/vim_faq.txt.html#faq-29.7 I was going to respond with a sarcastic "let me google that for you" but realized this particular version of the FAQ is not readily found via Google search (however item 3 on the first page for "vim faq" is a wiki page with a direct link: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_FAQ_and_other_documentation ). -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
