Re: Emacs 24.0.94.1 slow to load on OS X

[jreeseue]

Ah, so apparently this hasn't solved the problem. I reinstalled emacs 24 from
homebrew and was still experiencing slow load times. So, I downloaded emacs
23 and built it from the source with nox. I am still experiencing slow load
times, even with all the lines in my .emacs file commented out:
16:00@legolas:~$ time emacs .emacs -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"

real    0m4.412s
user    0m0.032s
sys     0m0.011s

As per a pervious request:
16:00@legolas:~$ time nslookup apple.com
Server:         129.215.70.239
Address:        129.215.70.239#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   apple.com
Address: 17.149.160.49
Name:   apple.com
Address: 17.172.224.47


real    0m1.018s
user    0m0.009s
sys     0m0.005s

If this is a network issue is there anything I can do about it? I was
running this same version of emacs (on the same wi-fi connections) on my
previous macbook pro which was running Snow Leopard and didn't experience
these issues. Any ideas?
