Startup time question

[benfrain]

I just started to profile my startup time and noticed that Kommentary (5th line down) seems to be the slowest of my plugins (profiled with nvim --startuptime vim.log). I'm not certain I'm reading the log correctly but I thought it was worth mentioning in case there is something causing the comparatively long time?

Hi, thanks for sharing, I'm also not sure if I'm reading the log correctly, but if we are, kommentary is definitely a little slow. (Although I think you don't really feel this when you're just using nvim normally)

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what could be causing this, but I also haven't actively worked on this for a while.

I might look into it at some point, but honestly I wouldn't get my hopes up. If anyone has an idea what could be causing this, please feel free to post here or send a PR.

any updates on this. Do you have any ideas where I should start looking? I have some spare time in the coming weeks, and it would be great to have this plugin load faster.

@ViRu-ThE-ViRuS Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, unfortunately I won't be of much help. At this point it's been too long since I've last actively worked on this plugin, it would take me some time to get back into it.

I remember there being several things that could be optimized, however none of those things should really affect startup times, so that threw me off a bit.

If you have any more specific questions about the codebase, I'd be more than happy to help. (If you're still planning on working on this)
