Will we be seeing faster loading screens in the near future?

[Yashirmare]

Takes me about 3 mins but I have about 6 to 7 gb of addons with the gmod files so that would probably be the answer

It only takes about 15secs on my shitty laptop either, and I just have a few script addons.

You guys that have slow loading times should use [url=http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645]process monitor[/url] to see what the fuck GMod is loading all the time.

I remember when I had an absolute shitstorm of addons, PHX, Wire, Stargate and a ton of other things without exporting the SVNs

gm_contruct Load time: 30 minutes :v:

you should upgrade your disk

Not sure how system rating works in windows for multiple disk drives, will it rate the highest or the lowest disk drive 0_o.

Maybe he has RAID 5 SSD! And his HDD storage drives lower it ;)

[fruxodaily]

Takes me at least 15 seconds depending on the map, gm_construct and gm_flatgrass are the fastest opposed to something on half life, team fortress etc..

[Yashirmare]

Gm_Construct needs $700 to load for 15 seconds...

Windows Experience Index Rating only tests the primary drive, as in wherever Windows is installed. That leads one to believe that garry doesn't use solid state memory, at least for his operating system.

[confinedUser]

He should consider it, makes things faster.

takes me like 10 seconds,
i5 2500k, 8GB, 560ti, win7 x64

I have Wire and some build addons installed

[kp3]

5 to 10 minutes depending if i alt-tab or not.
I have a crappy hdd though and my cpu isn't that new either. However It's all better than my friends computer which loads a map in about 10 secounds. Not sure why this is happening since he has all the addons i have, directly copied from my addons folder.

I don't have problems with loading times, although multiplayer loading times do take it a little.

If a loading time is long I just read a magazine or listen to my MP3 player until the game loads.

Exactly what I do for all my Source game's loading times.
