When the logs are read once, they should stay in the VFS cache as long as there is enough RAM, shouldn't they?
Anyway, instead of running /usr/bin/login, I just use /bin/zsh as my Terminal.app startup command which is much faster.
However, every time I access the file system, even some tab for autocompletion, it takes a few seconds. Even cd'ing into some directory can sometimes take a few seconds. Sometimes ~= it's more than 1h ago that I accessed that dir or so.
Edit: Maybe it's Time Machine or Spotlight or so which destroys the effectiveness of the VFS cache?
Changing directory is instant for me. (no SSD here, all spinning rust.) Tab completion is instant too. Run Time Machine every hour, never made a change to the spotlight config.
