Nothing is standing out to me from your .vimrc; did you create a
plugin file under ~/.vim/plugin/ that does something related to this?

There are a couple of ways of going about this: if you're running Vim
7.2.269 or later you can try the --startuptime command-line option
when invoking Vim.  It lets you specify a file for Vim to dump
profiling information.  It's intended to tell you why Vim takes as
much time as it does to startup, but it may give you a clue to your
problem.

If that doesn't tell you what you need to know, you can instead try
running 
% vim --cmd "set verbose=9"
 
I hope that helps you solve your problem.

These guioptions should go into your ~/.gvimrc instead.
