Soundpaint - Slow load times?

I'm in Soundpaint 3.0 on a very fast machine (Mac Studio with M2 Ultra), and I'm finding that it's taking a long time for patches to load. Troels repeatedly touts the super-fast load times, and I'm simply not seeing that.

I don't have this problem with any other libraries. Libraries load very quickly in Kontakt 7 (after a batch re-save, if necessary).

Is there a comparable command in Soundpaint? Or any other way to speed up loading? Not that it should matter, but I don't have that many Soundpaint libraries: ~20 or so.

I don't think that there is any equivalent of batch resaving. The key thing is where the samples are stored. NVMe M.2 SSD was recommended back when Soundpaint was released.

I have an M2 Max but I'm not sure what SSD I am using for my Soundpaint libraries. it isn't the recommended one, though. It isn't horribly slow; but it isn't obviously faster than Kontakt when loading new Parts and Programs.

There might be some other issue involving the DAW or other software.
 
Was my question moved without my being notified? Because I'm positive I was viewing the "Soundpaint discussion" thread, and that's where I believed I was posting my question.

I just confirmed, via my browser history, that I never visited this "Tech Support" thread until I received a reply to my post. Prior to that, I had only visited the "Soundpaint discussion" thread.

Thanks. I'm on an SSD. Some parts load quickly, while others take 10-20 seconds. (All Soundpaint libraries are in the same location on that SSD.)

Once the progress bar appears, loading is fast. But it often takes several to many seconds before the progress bar appears.
