Steve,

A few questions:

* You mention Python 3, but I see nothing in the init file you posted
which looks Python-related.

* I don't think you need to set default-drectory. It's buffer local
and will be set no matter what you're editing. Can you explain why you
do?

* You mentioned that it takes several starts to get the initial window
to open at the desired height.

   - Does the "initialized" message always display even when the
initial window height isn't correct?

   - Is it possible your window manager and other open windows are
conspiring to limit your initial window dimensions?
