Try putting all of your RTAS plugs into the unused folder then boot pro tools and see how long it takes to load.

This will help you to identify where the problem lies.

An easy way to do this is to use PT Plug-in Manager which you can download from here:

If you have anything connected to the ethernet port try disconnecting it and see if this solves your issue.

If it does, please report back because there are a number of us experiencing this very annoying issue.
