Uh, let's back up.

This is already 10x slower than a reasonable shell startup time, with no profile configuration at all, on an extremely fast desktop system. It's downright embarrassing that you are even attempting to defend this state of affairs.
- majkinetor 4y agoYour shell is not comparable to pwsh, because pwsh contains everything under the universe already there, while in typical shell, you need to install 3rd party tools, and then load them as you use them. I don't feel embarrased at all, while you should be, by comparing apples and oranges.
- pxc 4y agoPowerShell's slowness doesn't have anything to do with its feature completeness, though, nor the capabilities of the language itself. Many new shells inspired by PowerShell's structured pipelines and built-in coreutils replacements share both of those features with it, but not its abominable slowness.
