Hi Tim, thank you for your suggestions! :) The lua code I am editing currently has a length of 200 lines (12k). There is a difference between for example Lua code and a plain text file -- editing lua code is slower. Vim started with -u NONE also speeds up things -- but as I mentioned in my first mail...I really dont want to strip down vim to a lightning fast .... ed ;) Plugins are one of the outstanding features of vim ( the "im" in "vim") "syntax off" and "syntax" do not make much a difference. The drive is a fast SSD-card. I dont want to make vim "Noswap" ... ;) Best regards, mcc -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
