Any time you load a module, its SWF gets uncompressed, parsed and then executed until the code runs that notifies the moduleloader that it is ready. SWF parsing is not nearly as efficient as EXE processing, but of course, not nearly as fast as just creating a new instance of the main class in the module.
I will mention that modules often don't unload if they have styles registered with StyleManager so it may be that your modules aren't unloading anyway. The performance profiler will help you see where time is going.
