Re: Slow Info startup

[Richard M. Stallman]

      When 
    you browse around, your Info history will be recorded as though 
    you are visiting the real "elisp" info file, at 
    /usr/share/info/elisp or wherever.  If you later visit the "real" 
    info file, those links will be fontified as "previously visited" 
    links.   Maybe that's an acceptable situation, however. 

Maybe it is acceptable, but first, could you explain why you think
this is the best solution?

Why is removing the directory related to making this code faster?
