I had been using Emacs 21.3 over a 1500/768 kbps DSL line through VPN to an X11 server running on Windows XP in my home office without a problem, but with the new version, it's horribly slow. Startup takes forever, and C-v takes about 2 seconds. It doesn't seem to be related to my .emacs customizations since running Emacs 22 with -q shows the same problem. Unfortunately I no longer have access to Emacs 21. Before I grab the code and build it myself, can anyone shed any insight into why Emacs 22 might be so slow running from a Sparc/Solaris box through VPN and DSL to a XP box? It's never been really swift with Emacs 21, but it was usable. Thanks -- Mark
