It's to be expected that every loaded module might slow down some operations. Loading a major mode should usually not make a difference, and neither should minor modes that just add key-bindings. But many minor modes use various hooks to do work before/after some/every commands, or before/during redisplay. So these tend to slow down the interactive feel while they'll make little/no difference in typical benchmarks that are done as a single command and don't involve redisplay. Stefan
