Background: I installed Vim 7.3 from Solaris 8 library packages downloaded from unixpackages.com (formerly sunfreeware.com) on a Solaris 10 machine to an nfs mounted NetApp file system.
Problem: After invoking gvim for example from the command line, it takes about 5-10 seconds for the GUI to be displayed. Every time after that, it comes up immediately. If I log outof the server and log back in again, it takes that same 5-10 for the first invocation and immediate thereafter. Problem-solving: I performed a "gvim --startuptime gvim.init.log <file a>" for the initial run and compared it to each of the logs from subsequent logs and and saw a blatant difference in elapsed time in the "starting GUI" task. For example the elapsed time for the "starting GUI" task for one of the initial invocations was: 6052.747 and a subsequent invocation was 432.376. This difference was consistent despite the type/size of the file being loaded. All of the other tasks were consistent across all invocations. Does anyone have any experience in this area? Anyone else see this issue? thanks, rick -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
