Re: do plugins affect performance?


I open MacVim once and leave it up for days, if not weeks.  Load and close files in tabs as needed.  Startup time is seldom an issue.

However depending on where your plugins reside, it may take a
considerable amount of time to read in all your files. For that reason,
I am especially mad at vim-airline and vim-airline-themes.

This is slowing down starting up my editor in my WSL and I noticed the
same when my Vim installation was on a network share (possibly in
conjunction with some anti-virus application).

This is just annoying.

Best,
