Re: Slow vim (gvim) 7.3 on first startup

options:
- compare with xclock or such to make sure its not X related
- try any of the followming options
gvim
vim
DISPLAY= gvim
- script relatedc? don't source custom .vimrc files:
(g)vim -u NONE -U NONE -N

- try vim then type :gui to start

Maybe don't try to solve the problem, but work around it if keeping a
session open makes everything faster. SSH supports

Host *
ControlPath ~/.ssh/master-%r@%h:%p
ControlMaster auto

which means the second ssh connection will reuse the first one if its
still alive.

Even if this does not solve your issue - it may help tracking down what
is causing it.
