Hi folks -
Has anyone stumbled on any other known causes of IDL (I have 7.0)
taking forever to start up, while it's 'analyzing code'? I've checked
my path, and all seems ok, there. It's taking several minutes to
start up - sometimes, not always. Any suggestions?

"Analyzing Code" is a low priority background task. There is no need to wait for it to complete before using the workbench. You can start using the workbench as soon as it is responsive after the splash screen.
The only issue is that some functions and routines on the IDL path might not show up in the auto code completion feature in the editor, for example, until the "Analyzing Code" task is complete.
Cheers,
Scott

Hi,
Are you using many if loops in your code? I too have these
'analysing code' for a long period.
The problem either may be due to the low RAM speed in the system or
due to the buffering
problem in IDL. Do you have this problem when you run it for the first
time itself?
