With the same .emacs I use for 23.0.50, ie loading all the same
packages, startup of 23.0.60 feels many orders of magnitude
slower than 23.0.50. Have  others run into this?

Well, as mentioned before in other threads, Emacs 23.0.60 using the
new (default) font-backend is (depending on your architecture I guess)
sometimes magnitudes (hope no one will flame me for using this word)
slower for me, esp. on buffer navigation (C-n, C-p, ...).

But that's probably the price to pay when surfing on the bleeding edge
trunk-builds. I'm confident the developers will bring back the usual
performance and stability eventually.

You could try starting Emacs with --disable-font-backend which should
bring back performance. But on my system, Emacs crashes during startup
when doing this (hard to reproduce and on changing lines in my startup
file). So I have no other choice but bear with the new font-backend,
hope it shall stabilize soon.

I'm running on alinux console with the monitor turned off, so I
couldn't care less about the fonts in use;-)

The starting time for emacs -nw is close to instantaneous---less than 1
second before Emacs is ready for input---with no discernible performance
regression compared to Emacs 22.  With the font backend turned on, the
startup time is much slower, but clearly this isn't what you're talking
about.

Maybe some of the packages you're loading take much longer to load in
Emacs 23, for some reason?

quite possible that it's the packages I'm loading; will have to
set debug-on-quit to t at start up and interrupt it to see where
it's stopping. For now I've gone back to the snapshot from Feb 1,
2008 -- there are too many things that are breaking with respect
to keybindings from packages I load. Simple example is mspools --
with the cvs trunk builds, 'n' and 'p' dont get bound.

I'm having similar issues with packages like W3 that are not
bundled with emacs.

Please post precise bug reports about them.  These sound like
serious bugs.
