1/10th the clock frequency but i don't see a lag.
maybe my mind is the limiting rate, i don't want to nag.
though it's true that accessing files over miles is a drag,
they stay, once in core, w/ vars set just right, in the bag.

but what vars are just right to write in the init file?
does init mean restart mean context lost to the wild?
what's context but preference, a variation of style?
do programmers fall fashion victim, yet dress as a child?

well, emacs has always supported tweaks up the wazoo.
no desire once shared to its programmers is taboo.
though not answering directly (for which i hope you won't sue),
maybe {in,this} time you'll become an emacs programmer, too.
