====== Slow bash startup ======

  * The most likely culprit is that you have bash completion enabled.
    * uninstall the bash completion package -or-
    * rename %%/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh%% to %%bash_completion.sh.bak%% -or-
    * manually review %%/etc/bash_completion%% and comment out sections you don't need

  * Review your .profile or .bash_profile items.  You can rename these files to .bak and open bash again to see if it opens quickly.  If it does, remove certain sections until you find the culprit.
