i installed msys2 64bit from tar.xz on my new pc with windows 8.1 64bit

the problem is that msys2 is very slow on start (some seconds from click to prompt) and on bash completion

what could it be the problem?

thanks in advance

Can you use strace to try to figure out what part is slow? For me, it's quick.

From bash, for example:

strace bash --login -c "echo hello"
