Spacemacs is disturbingly slow.

• samvher 7y ago
  I don't know if you find spacemacs disturbingly slow while editing or just when it starts. I was disturbed by the latter and have emacs set up to run in daemon mode and have the following in my .bashrc: function em() { emacsclient -nw "$@" } so that I can call "em" with any necessary arguments and start an emacs session without having to wait. Works for me (though depending on the language I might still prefer vim).

    The emacs "daemon mode" works just well to solve the latter, indeed. But the general lack of asynchronous processing can be annoying, although async.el already exists.

  Just choose Ivy over Helm. I thought the same, but after switching to Ivy everything got fast again.

    Haven't tried that in a while... Thank you.
