If Vim takes a long time to start up, use the |--startuptime| argument to find

-- If the Unix version was compiled with the GUI and/or X11 (check the output
- of ":version" for "+GUI" and "+X11"), it may need to load shared libraries
- and connect to the X11 server. Try compiling a version with GUI and X11
- disabled. This also should make the executable smaller.
- Use the |-X| command line argument to avoid connecting to the X server when
- running in a terminal.
-- If you have "viminfo" enabled, the loading of the viminfo file may take a

- lines stored in a register with ":set viminfo='20,<50,s10". |viminfo-file|.
