Unavailable/Slow Network Paths in $PATH
At work, I'm in a Solaris environment working with csh, and $PATH is populated with anywhere between 10 and 20 entries.
Last week, every command I issued (even "ls") took several seconds, if not an entire minute, to run. Once I moved "/home/sybase/bin" to the end of $PATH, certain commands started working immediately. Still, other commands such as "vim" still take forever. I want to find out what is causing the slow-down.
How can I check, or somehow "ping" each path in $PATH? (Given one example, I can easily write a script, but I'm not sure how to get started.)
Thank you.
