Was this the first time you launched "man" (e.g. after a fresh
install)? If yes, was the next invocation of "man" also slow?

If you have Process Explorer (Microsoft TechNet), try running it while
issuing "man ls". You may be able to see which program is taking so
long to complete (man may start other programs).
