I do compile org but I do not compile any of my start-up files; this is a practice I got into when I was running different versions of emacs (e.g. 22 vs 23 vs 24) on different systems (from a wee N800 to a huge multi-core system) but with shared startup files. I say this in case the speedups I am observing are more noticeable if using non-compiled code and others are wondering why they don't observe any speedups. -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 and Org release_7.9.3d-917-gb9c506
