Vim taking an awfully long time to startup each time

[Jean-Marcel Belmont]

Hello,

I am running Vim 7.3 with no patches on Mac OS X 10.7 on the terminal app. I have added the output of startuptime option with a simple html file. In some cases vim takes more than 30 seconds to load up, while others between 15 and 20 seconds,
can anyone please explain what I must do to speed up this awfully slow startup time. Is it the fact that I have too many plugins or what?

Here is output of startuptime option:

The eclim plugin looks extraordinarily heavy:

If I understand correctly, it is meant to communicate with Eclipse,
which might not be the fastest thing in the world...

Just try starting Vim without eclim and see if that helps.

Best,
Paul

[Jean-Marcel Belmont]

Yep that plugin was the cause of the slow startup, now vim starts in a few seconds. Thank you.

Which is still quite slow, actually (at least to me). My Vim starts in
80ms and my Gvim in 700ms. Perhaps you should make sure you’re really
using all those plugins :)

Best,
Paul

[Ben Fritz]

The main culprit was eclim as you found, but I noticed you also have what look like filetype-specific plugins (like c.vim) in your plugin directory, so those will always load even for HTML files. You probably should clean that out and move stuff to ftplugin as needed.

For Eclim, do you have a whole ton of projects in your workspace in Eclipse? I noticed a recent commit to Eclim that fixes performance issues related to having a lot of projects, found in an XML file if I recall correctly.

[Jean-Marcel Belmont]

I actually never really used eclim that often so I basically deleted it from ~/.vim directory. You had a suggestion to move files in my ~/.vim/plugin directory to ~/.vim/ftplugin directory
Here is the contents of my plugin directory right now.
LargeFile.vim SingleCompile.vim c.vim cppcheck.vim libList.vim remoteOpen.vim txtfmt.vim vcssvk.vim
NERD_tree.vim SyntaxFolds.vim clang filebrowser.vim libclang.py screen.vim vcsbzr.vim vcssvn.vim

SearchComplete.vim bufexplorer.vim conque_term.vim l9.vim python_fn.vim surround.vim vcshg.vim
which ones would you suggest to put in ftplugin directory.

I see in your list that you have Pathogen installed. Why not just use it to manage your plugins? That should take care of the problem of moving files around amongst plugin directories (it, of course, won't help if a plugin is just slow to begin with).

I don't know for a fact if any of them ought to. But I noticed "c.vim" in particular, which looks suspiciously like a syntax or ftplugin file.

Somebody said you seem to have Pathogen installed. Some cleanup using Pathogen is probably in order.

If you're missing anything add it.
