nvm load on session start takes ~30 seconds, lazy load not working

Hi everybody,

I have had this problem for some time now and didn't find a solution, so I hope you guys can help me out.
When I use zsh-nvm without lazy load, the session start takes insanely long (~30 seconds).
That startup is only that slow when I open Terminal the first time after a restart of the machine.
When I use lazy loading, .nvmrc files are ignored until I manually enter something like nvm -v and then cd in the corresponding folder.

EDIT:
I just saw that you wrote about this in the README: https://github.com/lukechilds/zsh-nvm#auto-use

I tried to fix it according to issue #28 but adding PATH before zsh-nvm didn't change anything.

add-zsh-hook chpwd _zsh_nvm_auto_use && echo yep || echo nope

gives me yep

I don't know what I should look for or what the culprit could be.
I hope you guys can give me some tips on where to look!

Looking through the various issues, several of them identify what I am experiencing but I think this one is probably the best place for me to follow on.

Just to be sure it wasn't a broader problem, I did this. Still, no luck.

To validate the issue, I tested the plugin loading times using the "A Note on Profiling with zsh/zprof" section of this article. The results I got were pretty surprising.

This first test was what I was initially dealing with:

num  calls                time                       self            name

 8)    1          63.52    63.52    0.24%     63.52    63.52    0.24%  nvm_is_version_installed

...

Then, I set NVM_AUTO_USE=false. This was the improvement I saw:

...

Finally, I deleted zsh-nvm from the list of plugins in my .zshrc and it became obvious that zsh-nvm is what is killing my load times:

P.s. Lazy loading it did nothing to improve load times.
