I am running emacs24 + emacs24-el on ubuntu linux (obtained via apt-get), a= nd immediately install auctex and adaptive-wrap through the package manager= (11.87.7 for auctex); I wish ubuntu would allow non-interactive installati= on by providing a package, but it's ok. =20 When I open a 120k tex file, it takes about 5 seconds. When I rename the .= tex file to .txt in order to avoid the auctex (from .emacs), my emacs start= up is instant. so I know the problem is auctex. I don't even know how to debug this. I tried starting with --debug-init an= d looking at the *Messages* buffer, but this does not even tell me that auc= tex started up. (it tells me that 50ess.el did. interesting.) I know th= at adaptive-wrap mode is not at fault. removing it makes no difference. maybe this slow startup is intrinsic. maybe it just takes a long time to c= olorize and process a .tex file in auctex. but 5 seconds is pretty substan= tial on a 120k file on an i7-4. is this how it is supposed to be? if not, how can I diagnose the problem and improve this? /iaw
