It may execute faster when it finally gets around to it. But just loading the plotting library (Gadfly) takes over 10 seconds!

Starting all of Matlab never took that long.

I don't know what version of MATLAB you're using :P. They definitely have their logo screen open for a minute or two before the program shows up. That's quite a long load time. They just made it pretty.

Have you tried under julia 1.1? Latency issues much better, and will only improve.
