Slow startup

2006-05-11 Thread Jeffrey Pratt

Hi:

I just built Vim 7 on Cygwin, linked with ncurses, and it takes 54 sec 
to start in rxvt! (It starts normally if done from the regular Cygwin 
Bash Prompt.) I've built it on two other machines with the same 
configuration options, and neither of them take so much time in rxvt. 
Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Try vim -X

In cygwin rxvt works without X server. In your case, it's not case
of X server being slow. It's either X not running at all, or
$DISPLAY not set correctly. You can check for yourself if you
try any other X app like xterm. It will take same 60 sec of timeout and
won't start. Correct ?

It works; thanks. So, I assume it was trying to connect to the X server.
Maybe offtopic, but can you tell me why X is slow, or point me somewhere
that could tell me?
