Is this a PC that is attached to a network that has IT governing HOMEDRIVE?

> In timecost1.txt, we have:

4579.000  030.000  030.000: sourcing $VIM\_gvimrc
42416.000  37840.000: starting GUI

Reason being, 5 seconds was to open $VIM\_gvimrc (which, on my computer is 
%HOMEDRIVE%\_vimrc).  If you have latency when accessing %HOMEDRIVE% perhaps 
that is your issue?

I had a similar issue and remapped my %HOMEDRIVE% (in Windows 10) to a local 
directory by creating a shortcut within Startup with:

C:\Windows\System32\subst.exe P: "A:\home"

My vim now starts up nicely -- though, I no longer have a network attached 
HOMEDRIVE.
