-Octave is probably spending this time recursively searching directories for
-function files.  Check the value of the internal variable LOADPATH,
-accessible through the Octave fucntion @code{path}.  For those
-elements that end in @samp{//}, do any name a very large directory tree?
-Does it contain directories that have a mixture of files and 
-directories?  In order for the recursive directory searching code to 
-work efficiently, directories that are to be searched recursively should
-have either function files only, or subdirectories only, but not a
-mixture of both.  Check to make sure that Octave's standard set of
-function files is installed this way.
+Octave uses the @code{genpath} function to recursively add directories
+to the list of directories searched for function files. Check the list
+of directories with the @code{path} command. If the path list is very
+long check your use of the @code{genpath} function.
