What is the spec of your machine btw? I have a fast machine
here where emacs takes less than 2s to start up with iiimecf.
If you don't need IIIMF support in Emacs you can just remove
the "iiimf-emacs" package which includes the above init
file, then the slow startup (due to loading the "un-define"
from mule-ucs I think) will go away.
Sometimes it doesn't pay to install everything. :)
