Question

I don’t like the way MacVim has such a slow scrolling speed, ( Was faster on gVim, Ubuntu ), is there a way to speed it up ?

Answer 1

I’m assuming you mean mouse scrolling speed (since keyboard scrolling is welldefined and shouldn’t vary across platforms/versions unless you modified your .vimrc)

From http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/scroll.html#scroll-mouse-wheel

You can modify the default behavior by mapping the keys. For example, to make
the scroll wheel move one line or half a page in Normal mode: >

    :map <ScrollWheelUp> <C-Y>
    :map <S-ScrollWheelUp> <C-U>
    :map <ScrollWheelDown> <C-E>
    :map <S-ScrollWheelDown> <C-D>

You can also use Alt and Ctrl modifiers.
