Hi You could compile Vim with gprof (GNU profiler) by uncomenting this line in vim/src/Makefile: #PROFILE_CFLAGS = -pg -g -DWE_ARE_PROFILING Then run Vim, run vim and perform something slow and quickly exit Vim. When exiting, Vim will create a file gmon.out which you can analyze with... $ gprof vim gmon.out ... where vim is the file name of the executable built with: -pg -g, and gprof.out is the file created when exiting vim. This plugin which can help navigate in the call graph of gprof output: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4077 > I started with a vim v6.3 copied from an other HP-UX 11.23 > ia64 but also compiled a vim v7.3 on 11.31 and both behave the same. If you're using 7.3, you're missing many patches. You'd be better off with the latest Vim-7.3.762 which you can checkout with Mercurial: http://www.vim.org/mercurial.php Some of the patches optimize speed but they would not explain why everything is slow with Vim-7.3. More importantly, patches fix many bugs and add a few small features. Regards -- Dominique -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
