i honestly don't know what the problem might be there, but did you try timing it without a vimrc(if you are using one) or plugins? sometime ago i read something about using a gvim instance that was built with visual studio as opposed to using the mingw build. i don't know if that will help. but it's also worth a try. i understand that the compiler isn't the issue since you mentioned that the startup time s much better on a different pc. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
