Assuming by "open" you mean "have opened in tabs, i.e. to edit", I only 
have maybe a dozen files open; sometimes only 3-4. I think it was less 
than six for the instance where I timed it.

It almost sounds like I am not having this parsing stuff persisted? Or 
maybe it's something totally different; you probably know better than I 
do (given that you, or at least Matt, has my callgrind output).

Yeah, that sounds like the "big killer" I remember noticing. Anyway, was 
just wondering; thanks for the info!
