10+ sec delay loading plugins with 2022.4 update

[stevedresser83]

It's not every plugin or every time, haven't found an obvious pattern to it, but some sessions seems to just start doing this randomly. Can be anywhere from maybe 5 second delay to maybe 15-20 max. Never had this problem before. I've uninstalled, deleted protools folder from appdata, reinstalled. Same issue.

Prior to this update I hadn't updated protools in about a year (i skipped at least one update if not 2 / I think i had the version where darkmode was first added). Not sure what version # I was in but I had no issue like this at all. No other obvious changed to the system. I did install some avid plugins I never had installed before and updated the HD driver to the latest.

Anyone else experiencing similar? Any ideas to try before I uninstall and downgrade to the older version that seemed stable for me?
