Hi I am also experiencing this type of problem. Anyone has ever fixed it?

time root -l -q
root [0]

real 0m32.797s
user 0m0.069s
sys 0m0.037s

Thank you

Hi,

what version of OSX are you running? If OSX, try:

sudo dtruss $ROOTSYS/bin/root.exe

to see where it is waiting. It might give you a hint of what is misconfigured.

Cheers, Fons.

The problem is sorted (for me at least).

I had to change the name of the computer. If you go to System Preference -> Sharing and type the same name on the Computer Name as for example,
tesla

then match it with command via terminal:
sudo scutil --set HostName tesla.local

when these two are different, root hangs at startup.

I hope this helps.
