   Whenever I connect to DECUServe (EISNER::) using PuTTY under   
   Windows, Vim takes up to well over a minute or so to come up;   
   each time, regardless if it's a preexisting or new file.   
   However, when I connect through a regular "Windows Terminal"   
   (PowerShell or otherwise) SSH session, Vim comes up normally,   
   i.e. within a second or so.   
      
   Could it be that PuTTY (since a certain version?) provides   
   confusing terminal type information; and, if so, how to   
   check/verify this?  At the same time, even if the case, I   
   never or rarely encountered this in the past.
