I'm finding that my remember templates are slow to load. I've got a lag of about three to four seconds. I know that doesn't sound like much, but it's kind of puts a kink in the workflow. I use GNU emacs on Windows. I also have cygwin installed, and I have noticed that the problem doesn't occur when using cygwin. Any ideas?

For what it's worth, I've also had this problem for a while now. However, I *do* use emacs w/ cygwin:
Windows XP (w/ Cygwin)
GNU Emacs 23.2.1
Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.453.g0cd4)

I suspect (for no particular reason other than disdain for Windows) that it is related to poor file system (NTFS) access speeds. For example, maybe org is trying to open several files to look for TODO keywords and/or tags?
