Speed up slow Emacs startup without full qualified domain name (FQDN)

Emacs takes unbelievably long to start without a fully qualified domain name (FQDN).

I would like to know what elisp commands in the .emacs file could speed it up without a FQDN e.g. using a fake system-name.

  • You can't solve this issue in ~/emacs since the wait takes place before this file is even loaded.
