  • 0

I am having a problem with vim 7.2 hanging (for about 10 seconds) after it parses the .vimrc file. I had a similar issue in the past with tcsh on linux, but it was resolved by setting TERM to xterm-color. The same does not resolve the issue here. Any idea what may be causing this?

    Does a vim -X make any difference (as I suspect you’re not running gvim) ?

    Otherwise, a lot of plugins may cause this. Or plugins that hang on some operations.
