rails environment suuuper slow

ever since i started using rails 3 everything take ages to load, and no one seems to know the reason

ubuntu 10.04 rvm ruby 1.9.2 rails 3.0.1

and i get this

time rspec spec/models/user_spec.rb ...

Finished in 0.80685 seconds 3 examples, 0 failures

real 0m19.700s user 0m18.045s sys 0m1.332s

as you can see the test takes less than a second but the process takes 20 seconds, this is driving me crazy.

these are the gems im using gem ‘rails’, ‘3.0.1’

gem ‘sqlite3-ruby’, :require => ‘sqlite3’ gem “will_paginate”, “>=3.0.pre2” gem “devise”, “>=1.1.2” gem “devise_invitable” gem “formtastic”, “>=1.1.0” gem “friendly_id”, “~>3.0” gem “compass”, “>= 0.10.5” #gem “metric_fu”, “>=1.5.1”, :group => :development gem “rspec”, “>=2.0.0”, :group => :test gem “rspec-rails”, “>=2.0.0”, :group => [:development, :test] #gem ‘autotest-rails’, :group => [:development, :test] gem “remarkable”, “>=4.0.0.alpha4”, :group => :test gem “remarkable_activemodel”, “>=4.0.0.alpha4”, :group => :test gem “remarkable_activerecord”, “>=4.0.0.alpha4”, :group => :test gem “shoulda”, :group => :test gem “faker”, :group => [:test, :cucumber] gem “factory_girl_rails” gem “cucumber”, “>=0.6.3”, :group => :cucumber gem “cucumber-rails”, “>=0.3.2”, :group => :cucumber gem “capybara”, “>=0.3.6”, :group => :cucumber gem “database_cleaner”, “>=0.5.0”, :group => :cucumber gem “spork”, “>=0.8.4”, :group => :cucumber gem “pickle”, “>=0.4.2”, :group => :cucumber gem “selenium-webdriver” gem “inploy”, “>=1.6.8” gem “rails3-generators”, :git => “git://github.com/indirect/rails3-generators.git” gem ‘simple-navigation’, ‘3.0.0’ gem “cancan” gem “launchy”, :group => :cucumber

rvm is 1.0.17
