dotfiles: YADR is slow.

I love this repo, but I’ve had lots of problems with speed. I’ve tried on a 3.4ghz iMac and a 2.4ghz 2011 Macbook Pro, and both are sluggish when running commands like irb and rails c. Even with cd, I get a quarter to half second delay. Vim takes about two seconds to start. Is this a sacrifice for the large amount of plugins, or am I getting unusually low performance?

I’ve also noticed that when text has filled the terminal so that the scrollbar must be used, delays becomes longer.

And again, when I’m using plain zsh or bash I get instant output on most commands. I’m not sure what other information to give at this point so just let me know what you need.

I’ve been using it as my daily driver since Oct 2015. Honestly I just need to clean up my yadr/neovim adapter and push it somewhere.

I’ve created a gist with my current neovim settings (with yadr installed).

I’ve disabled plugins I have no need of and replaced a few with neovim specific ones (fzf instead of ctrlp).

I tried out neovim with latest yadr over the weekend. I’ve changed a few of the plugins but other than that it’s working beautifully. I’ll post instructions soon.
