A quick glance and your ~/.vim_runtime/vimrc (sourced in .vimrc)
shows.. that it is quite huge! Nearly 700 lines of code. Lots of
things might be going wrong there, have you checked it? If not, take
time to see if there are parts that you really need - and retain only
those.

I did see:
set clipboard=unnamed
..this is normally ok.. It must use '*' register as clipboard. Try
checking the behavior without this line. Or try other options for
clipboard (see :help 'clipboard')

I also saw and wouldn't recommend the following:
" Turn backup off, since most stuff is in SVN, git anyway...
set nobackup
set nowb
set noswapfile

Having git/SVN is one thing, and turning of swap/backup is entirely
different thing. Swap files protect against vim/OS crashes. SVN/git is
for version control.
