- Vim (version: ) behaves differently?
N/A
- Operating system/version: 
`Linux ubuntu-160402 4.10.0-33-generic #37~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 11 14:07:24 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux`
- Terminal name/version: via Windows - Putty
- `$TERM`: `screen-256color`

### Steps to reproduce using `nvim -u NORC`

Does not reproduce on `nvim -u NORC` -  fast startup

### Actual behaviour
Quite recently I observed that `nvim` takes several seconds to launch while before it was maximum a second. I managed to trace it back `nvim/share/nvim/runtime/autoload/provider/clipboard.vim` but I do now know what exactly there is causing the issue.

`nvim --startuptime ~/.config/nvim/init.vim`

After removing `/home/pmalek/bin/nvim/share/nvim/runtime/autoload/provider/clipboard.vim` it starts fast as before.

`nvim -u NONE` works fast as expected.

In `:CheckHealth` I can observe that my clipboard tool is set to `tmux` - which I'm using with neovim all the time. Is that ok? I use tmux 2.5 ( I tried master with the same effect)

Expected behaviour

Fast startup.

@pmalek could you try this:

nvim --cmd 'profile start profile.txt' --cmd 'profile func *'

Then :q and post profile.txt to a gist.

TERM: screen-256color

Should be putty-256color, see :h $TERM. (unrelated to this issue)

[pmalek]

Couldn't fit the whole profile in here: https://pastebin.com/4uPkPdcL I can see that the clipboard provider is taking most of the time

Regarding the TERM: setting it to putty-256color didn't change anything.

[justinmk]

Looks like s:cmd_ok('xsel -o -b') is the problem.

FUNCTION  <SNR>136_cmd_ok()
Called 1 time
Total time:   2.012136
 Self time:   2.012136

count  total (s)   self (s)
    1              2.012101   call system(a:cmd)

A workaround would be to force xclip (assuming you have it installed) by setting g:clipboard:

    let g:clipboard = {
          \   'name': 'xclip-custom',
          \   'copy': {
          \      '+': 'xclip -quiet -i -selection clipboard',
          \      '*': 'xclip -quiet -i -selection primary',
          \    },
          \   'paste': {
          \      '+': 'xclip -o -selection clipboard',
          \      '*': 'xclip -o -selection primary',
          \   },
          \ }

Regarding the TERM: setting it to putty-256color didn't change anything.

That suggestion isn't related to this issue, it will optimize terminal behavior, e.g. with scrolling.

[pmalek]

Seems like removing xsel and installing xclip worked. Thanks :)

[cyansprite]

Just out of curiosity, if you use ( using the correct path to xsel or just xsel if it's where it should be )

let g:clipboard = {
        \   'name': 'xsel - bin',
        \   'copy': {
        \      '+': $HOME.'/bin/xsel -i -b',
        \      '*': $HOME.'/bin/xsel -i -p',
        \    },
        \   'paste': {
        \      '+': $HOME.'/bin/xsel -b',
        \      '*': $HOME.'/bin/xsel -p',
        \   },
        \   'cache_enabled': 0,
\ }

is it still slow?

[pmalek]

To be honest I don't see this issue anymore. I compile and install neovim from sources every couple of days and this seemed to magically go away :)

[justinmk]

4150 swapped the order to prefer xsel but I can't find an explanation.

this seemed to magically go away

Possibly you had an invalid $DISPLAY which xsel tried to connect and the timeout caused the delay.

Let's trying preferring xclip again.
