I am having a strange problem using vim 7.3 on hp-ux v11.3i. Whenever i open vim, it just takes a long time to open. Scrolling is also slow. Disabling syntax highlighting helps but it is still at unacceptable speed. vi on the other hand is blazing fast. This machine has many cpu's and large amount of memory.
On running vim with --startup time monitoring, it seems that for all termcap operations, it is taking a long time. for eg: 006.041 000.878: expanding arguments 006.090 000.049: shell init *1014.995 1008.905: Termcap init* 1015.344 000.349: inits 2 1015.925 000.581: init highlight . . . 1075.276 000.812: reading viminfo 1075.361 000.085: setup clipboard *1075.409 000.048: setting raw mode* *1534.299 458.890: waiting for return* 1534.314 000.015: start termcap 1534.376 000.062: clearing screen $TERM set to xterm or dtterm has same problem. Syntax highlighting and colors works but is very slow. Any suggestions ?? -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
