Did some tests and checked few older DCS.log(s). (Main DCS and SavedGames folders on 1TB Samsung SSD)

Earlier "▲ first start of the day" loading times (with lots of Mods/Addons in the SavedGames folder) were about 1:20
, without any mods (only Su-25T and TF-51D in the "GameFolder"/Mods) was about 1:10 - (to get into the Caucasus-MissionEditor + 20 seconds). So Summ/Total were 1:40 - 1:30 into ME.
... not "▲ first start of the day" loading times were shorter, approx. 10 seconds quicker.

Now (DCS 2.8.6.41363 Open Beta)  "▲ first start of the day" loading time (and other, right after 2nd-3rd starts also) are about 3:20 but to get into Caucasus-MissionEditor slightly quicker: + 10 second.

So the loading time now approx 2.5 times slower with the latest patch, here. - (but on the other hand get into ME, mission loading times, swaptimes between maps are faster)


BTW: there is a problem @ the beginning of loading (maybe with weapons ???) - No Mods (running ST)

I cleared my %appdata%/local/temp/dcswhatever folder and it immensely helped my load times and other stuttering I was getting with this OB. Not sure if it will help anyone else

Did you use Bailey's "witcher" or what it's called?
