I have a 10 MB project with around 300 classes/modules and it takes 20 to 30 seconds to load on a 1.67 G4 PowerBook with 1 GB RAM. The same project with all external items takes even longer. > >> My projects are big but relatively simple. I use very few external >> items and almost no plugins.

I have a couple of extensions but neither of the ones that you or Peter are using.
