Thanks for this Rex. I have installed the packages from the PPA. I can now start gvim from a terminal and gvim is immediately responsive. gVim seems to be back to its former speed, I can edit large files with folds again!
However, when gvim is run from a terminal it does not fork by default. Running "gvim --nofork" and "gvim" gives the same effect. (I am almost certain I have removed all aliases/scripts that inserted --nofork) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/856779 Title: gvim slow to respond To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/856779/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
