Hack to see why your program is taking so long to load

timed_require.rb

require 'benchmark'
$require_depth = 0
module TimedRequire
  LIMIT = 0.0
  def require(path)
    #puts "     #{' '*$require_depth}>>#{path}"
    begin
      $require_depth += 1
      t = 0.0
      t = Benchmark.realtime {super}
    rescue Exception
      puts "!!!!!!! exception during #{path} !!!!!!!"
      raise
    ensure
      $require_depth -= 1
      if t > LIMIT
        puts "#{'%1.3f'%t}#{' '*$require_depth}<<#{path}"
      end
    end
  end
  def load(path)
    #puts "     #{' '*$require_depth}>>#{path}"
    begin
      $require_depth += 1
      t = 0.01
      t = Benchmark.realtime {super}

      if t > LIMIT
        puts "#{'%1.3f'%t}#{' '*$require_depth}<<#{path}"
      end
