Re: Vim startup profiling

Hi Ken,
I briefly looked at your patch and have some feedback.

I think this variable should either be called `do_no_lazyload_menus` or
the value should be 0, since by default the menus will be lazy loaded.

+ let n = globpath(&runtimepath, "colors/*.vim")

I think that should be

+ let n = globpath(&runtimepath, "colors/*.vim", 1, 1)

So you have a list available already and don't need to split later on
manually and you probably do want to ignore the suffixes and wildignore
options, if only the user having set them to bad values.

The same holds for the keymap and compiler runtime files.

+ augroup SetupLazyloadMenus
+ au!
+ au CursorHold,CursorHoldI * call <SID>SetupLazyloadMenus() | au! SetupLazyloadMenus
+ augroup END

Is this actually a good idea to delete the augroup from within itself?

BTW: there are many runtime file variables. Perhaps we should start to
document internal runtime file variables in a help file at a central
place.

Also I am starting to wonder, whether it would make sense to start using
a common prefix, so that the names are more consistent and less likely
to clash with user variables, e.g. something like
vim_ftplugin_undo
vim_indent_undo
vim_menu_init_immediate
