Hello,
Are there any tricks one can use to diagnose why the loading of VSL sounds is so slow? It is recently got incredibly slow: it takes about 20-25 minutes to open a project because VSL Ensemble takes so long to load the VSL sounds. Interestingly, the instances of the third party plug-ins in my template haven't got noticeably slower on that machine.
I have an SSD3 drive on a SATA3 port, so it really should be fairly quick. It used to take about 3-5 mins, but never 20! (Even my other slave with nothing but EastWest Play instances on it isn't quite that bad!) Nothing in my system has changed hardwise-wise, so it would be great if you guys have a diagnostic utility I could run to monitor what VE's up to internally and what's slowing it down.
What I have noticed is that it seems to get considerably worse if I close and then open a different project using the same template, which is odd, because you'd have thought that quite a bit of the data would be cached in memory, as indeed appears to be the case on my other slaves that aren't using VSL sounds which conversely load signficantly quicker after the first project has been closed.
If anyone can shed any light on this, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Michael
