Like Mikael said, i added 'compinit -u' and it helped me a lot, but i
was still having a big delay on completion.

After dig into it i figured out my problem was being caused because
i had a symlink "/usr/bin/foo" that was pointing to a NFS mounted
directory, and it was the cause of delay. After remove this symlink
it started to work fine again even if i remove -u option from compinit.

The conclusion is it was just an environment problem, not zsh, sorry
for the noise.

And i figured out it started happening after i upgrade to fedora 15
because there is a local repository with tools from the company i
work for, and one of those packages created that link on my
/usr/bin.

If you want to restore that link (because you need that program), you
can pre-load the hash table for it:

hash foo=/usr/bin/foo

I *think* this will cause zsh to skip over that name when it later
populates the hash for the /usr/bin directory, which *should* avoid
the NFS mount delay.  If you try it, let us know if it works.

Hello Bart,

I tried you suggestion with no success, after re-create the symlink
delay was back.
