[Info-vax] VI* on VMS

I'm helping operate an OpenVMS V7.3 system running on a VAXstation
4000-60. We have Vim 7.4 installed, but it appears to cause a big spike
in CPU usage and DIOCNT whenever it's run. The person who installed it
is no longer with us, and we are considering deleting Vim.

We also have VILE installed, which limited experimentation has not shown
to cause the same kind of performance problems. Does anyone know if VILE
is indeed well-behaved on VMS?
