Hi Raul,

If this helps, here are the details:

The Jewish war is the one that takes over three minutes to load. It was
recorded in from cassette. It has 47 headings, and is 24 hours, 37 minutes,
10 seconds long.

The Dog Bible was recorded as a digital book originally. It has 195
headings, and is 38 hours, 15 minutes, 19 seconds long.

So The Dog Bible has more markup, but since books that are digitized from
cassette are marked up differently, maybe that's the problem.

If I can give you any more info, please let me know.

Thanks,
Cheryl

Hello Cheryl. NLS books with more markup tend to load slower than NLS
books with fewer markup. For example, a 35 hour book may load much
faster than a 2 hour book if the 2 hour book has more markup, like
magazines tend to do. This has been marked down to get better.

Many thanks.
