In general, 0.17 loads much faster than previous versions, which is great, but this one step "checking sprites" sometimes takes a long time, like a full minute or so. The weird part is that other times it only flashes by very quickly.
Any clue what's going on?
Slow "checking sprites" at startup, what does it mean?

"Checking sprites" is reading all of the sprites from disk into memory that the game needs.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

I see. I have yet to invest in an SSD, so it's not surprising that would take some time. I guess that means cases where it does go quickly are only thanks to Windows caching the files or something.
