Again, I suspect that with the sheer number of bookmarks you have the file simply takes time to load, given the limitations of your connexion. Have you checked to see how large, in fact, your bookmarks file is and what the downstream speeds provided by your ISP really are in practice ? To take my situation as an example, he nominal downstream speed provided me by my ISP is 8Mbs, but in reality I never get more than 6.75 Mbs, which I understand is quite good for an ADSL connexion. And if the Google servers are very busy when you try to load your bookmarks, you can expect that doing so will take even more time. So I doubt that the problem lies with Chromium/Chrome - unless it's the case that your bookmarks load much more quickly from a different browser....
