I timed my last 2 load times, from when I clicked on " Go To Field " both were in the 4 minute 25 second range. Is this to be expected ?
I have the latest patch installed 1.03. my specs are in my sig.

The first load of the day may be slower, but that is very long especially on a SSD. Beyond our support really, but if the SSD isn't brand new if it has it been full or near full in the past this can cause slow downs.
Check other settings, maybe some issue with drive caching etc.

Anti Virus interfering scanning everything .. maybe exclude WOFF folders and files.

If you are in 1918 or have enabled higher settings for flight density it could take longer but 4.5 mins is very long.

Hi Wango, for comparison I just took a quick test for you on a 7200rpm external hard drive.

First run of the day, 1918 medium air activity, medium forced encounters..Go to field until inside cockpit 1min 36 sec
All 5,s in workshop and full woods/trees settings

Regards.

Ok, it sure looks like my Anti-Virus was the issue. I am using System Mechanic, which includes iolo Anti-Virus. I excluded my OBD folder from active care.
Bingo, 21 seconds after clicking "Go To Field" I was ready to rock. bananadance
Thanks for the help guys.
