I'm quite sure the slowness is because of knife subcommand loading. It 
crawl through files in all gems while trying to find knife commands. 

Doesn’t sound like the optimal way of dealing with gems. Maybe an actual plugins system would be better? Or some other way of letting knife know about installed commands?

Using Bundler to isolate loaded gems should indeed help.
