I am currently trying to create a neovim environment to see if it can be my primary text editor.

But I am already facing a problem with Nerdtree which is making neovim way too slow. I don't understand why this is the case and how to fix it. My setup is quite basic, I've just followed the basic command lines in https://www.chrisatmachine.com/Neovim/01-vim-plug. Yet after launching nvim on a basic file such as init.vim (at this stage of the configuration, so basically a one-lined text), it takes about seconds to load... Have you already faced this problem? Do you know what I did wrong or how to solve it?

Thanks in advance, Paul

    Welcome to [vi.se]! Let me copy the relevant info from the deleted comments, in case you cannot get to the chatroom to see them. Link http://vimcasts.org/blog/2013/01/oil-and-vinegar-split-windows-and-project-drawer/ How are you sure it's NERDtree which is slowing down neovim? Have you checked for errors in :messages? Have you read :h --startuptime it can be helpful do debug long starting – D. Ben Knoble Apr 13 '21 at 19:28

    the config must be presented as it is (or better simplified as much as possible while the problem persists), before anyone could say anything for sure. (perhaps How to debug my vimrc) – D. Ben Knoble Apr 13 '21 at 19:29
