nvm: Performance: `nvm use default` slow, slows down shell startup (nvm.sh)
. ~/.nvm/nvm.sh adds about half a second to shell startup. The main culprits seem to be nvm ls default and nvm use default - commenting them out drops the timing reported by time . ~/.nvm/nvm.sh to near-zero.
I wonder if we can speed those up, or replace them with a cheaper operation for shell startup?
