ah...McAfee 'free' virus scan invited itself onto my computer a few weeks ago;
when i removed it, help() is now it's old, fast self!

help() seems the ONLY operation that's slow, Windows Task Manager doesn't show
anything intensive going on, other programs running normally - it's as though a
timer is set that diverts the request for a minute.
links within the help pages come up quickly, only the requests from the
console.
suddenly a few days ago it takes about a minute for local help to come up .
i type :
?hist
and get
starting httpd help server ... done
but only after a minute does
http://127.0.0.1:15686/library/graphics/html/hist.html
appear .
