emacs startup slowed down on fast machine



Hi I am running sid, although I have not upgraded anything since sarge was 
released.

I noticed a while ago that on this machine the emacs startup is slow. Now this 
is a very capable machine (xenon processor 1Gb of ram etc).

I dont recall doing any modifications, and the only thing slow is the startup.

it happened months ago, suddenly one day....

 ( i dont have a .emacs file ... although i may have once modified one to put 
the line
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-p" 'ps-print-buffer)
into one at some point....).

what happens now is i see "slo..............wly" the parade of 
loading yyz 

loading semantic-idle 
etc
in the minibuffer that on other machines goes by much faster. 

I wonder what making this machine slower.

it is not an etch thing. this has been going on for a while, and i just got 
annoyed enough to ask the group :)!

thanks,

Mitchell
