[R] help server slow

[John Kane]

   Well,  if nothing else it is probably time to update anyway.
   If  that  does  not help, we can hope that some of the gurus have some
   suggestions.  It  really sounded like a local network problem :(
   Best of luck

   help() seems the ONLY operation that's slow, Windows Task Manager doesn't
   show anything intensive going on, other programs running normally - it's as
   though a timer is set that diverts the request for a minute.
   links within the help pages come up quickly, only the requests from the
   console.
   ...i suppose rebuilding R is worth a try...i'm running
   R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31)

   It sounds like a local system problem.  Are you running on a local intranet
   or have something cpu intenstive running in the background?
