Loading plugin causes slow startup

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Using --startuptime, vcscommand is shown to be the slowest loading plugin by a 
large margin. Here are the results I got:

6362.020  608.218  608.218: sourcing

/Users/blue/.vim/bundle/vcscommand/plugin/vcssvn.vim

Is it possible to speed this up by delaying as much logic as possible until the 
first time a vcs function is called?

It's possible to delay some definitions.  Most users of the plugin, however, 
will need the logic defined as soon as they're loading the first file they're 
editing in order to display VCS information for that file.

Additionally, changing to using autoloading would break any scripts that 
currently depend on the functionality provided by the plugin, so I'd be wary to 
do that.

The time to source the files is way out of whack with what I see even on older 
hardware.  What is your environment?  It may be that the time can be improved 
by avoiding whatever is taking so long.

Could you please provide the entire startuptime profile file?

Closing due to lack of response.
