terminalzshoh-my-zshzshrc

oh-my-zsh very slow (load time about 10 seconds)


I am using:

Mac OS X 10.10.5 (Yosemite)
zsh 5.0.5
oh-my-zsh

the problem is, terminal load time is too slow about 10 seconds, even for opening new terminal tabs.

I tried solution on this blog post: http://osxdaily.com/2010/05/06/speed-up-a-slow-terminal-by-clearing-log-files/ but that didn't helped me.

sudo rm -rf /private/var/log/asl/*.asl

Thanks


Solution

  • node was making trouble for me, and here is the solution that works:

    In my .zshrc

    # configure node version manager
    export NVM_DIR=~/.nvm
    [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" --no-use # This loads nvm
    alias node='unalias node ; unalias npm ; nvm use default ; node $@'
    alias npm='unalias node ; unalias npm ; nvm use default ; npm $@'
