Rails Startup Latency

Question

Using Rails 3.1.3--rails console takes about 45 seconds to start up and display the prompt; rake takes about the same to start executing; once underway, commands seem to be executed at a "normal" speed. Running on Win XP, fully updated. (New to Ruby and RoR)

What are possible causes of this startup latency?

What version of Ruby are you using, and is it the RubyInstaller version? — Andrew Grimm, Jan 11 '12 at 21:23

It's usual situation for Windows platforms.

Check your antivirus, add ruby.exe to exception list and then antivirus will not trace what ruby is doing on your machine.
