Comment Comment by joejag I followed this advice and my shell went from 1530ms to 35ms startup time.Main culprits were language switchers (nvm, jabba, pyenv). Which I moved to lazy loading.If I drop the ohmyzsh plugins startup time is 11ms. But, I want some quality of life.There's a nice benchmarking command in the article if you want to test yours:for i in $(seq 1 10); do /usr/bin/time $SHELL -i -c exit; done parent joejag 2 years ago
