Starting zsh is slow with Oh-My-Zsh enabled

Starting zsh with Oh-My-Zsh enabled takes ~0.5 seconds, which is becomes annoying when opening many new terminals.

Solution

  • Check if your .zshrc contains the following line multiple times:

    source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh

    I had two of those lines in my config. After removing one of those zsh starts 10x faster.
