Hi,     I'm using emacs 23.0.91.1 and i load a few files using load-file     in my .emacs file like session, hide-mode-line, uniquify, color-theme     bs.el etc. but lately its become very very slow. Emacs it seems is     panting and running out of breath when i open a file or when I browse     around the file. Is there any way to optimize for speed ? Regards, Maindoor.
