What on earth is going on with sampler load times....?

10 MINUTES for a 61MB load from flash memory, yet my 10 year old K2500 can do the same thing in ONE! (from a HD... from a CDROM it's about 30% slower) And it is based, especially the sample load section, on the 1990 K2000. 16 years later and things are ten times SLOWER....?

PLEASE...... if you are interested in using samples in an arranger (or any other type of keyboard, from what I can tell), yell, scream, plead and cajole your manufacturer into AT LEAST equaling the load time of a 15 year old sampler....

Moore's Law my ar$e....... (and yes, I know Moore's Law is really about chip densities, but most people use it as a generalization about how much faster and more capable electronics are getting.....!)

If these figures are correct, if the PA800 DID have 512MB of RAM, it would take nearly an hour to load....!
