So, in fact, something like 6 to 8 hours. FYI, I restart Emacs at least once every day [1]. Reasons are a.o. that: - I upgrade Org (and am sure to start in a right config, with no defvar/defcustom in the way, if I restart), - I want to be sure to cleanly save all my files before a crash happen (even if we have the M-x recover-this-file, which does not show me what I loose and what I gain, I prefer to be sure that files are properly saved), - I modify things in my .emacs, and want to be sure (before committing) that I did not forget a closing paren, or introduced an add-to-list with an unknown var) - etc. So, I never have Emacs running for more than 12 hours or so. Best regards, Seb [1] Reason why I'm still interested by having an ultra-fast startup time. -- Sebastien Vauban
