An optimised 32bit build on Win7 x64 is nice and quick. I can get a
5sec startuptime if I do a non-optimised build. The bulk of the time
was spent sourcing synload.vim which doesn't tie up to the reported
startuptime results. That appeared to show time spent in preparing the
GUI - all that happens at that time is initialising OLE and loading a
dll to get at some entry points. I'm not an OLE expert so don't know
what may affect that but the code looks small and simple. Loading a dll
should be quick.

I build with MSVC, it may be that alternate compilers and their runtime
libraries cause slow downs. Unfortunately the compiler used is not
reported by version, perhaps it should to help with these types of problems.
