I have been working with ESP Development on this issue a long time. And I would rarely post this in public. But I had tried out the new BUILD 106 and - yes is it faster to load the client. I can leave my Custom Views and LMI open and it is very fast.
I plan to roll out Build 106 over the next few weeks. And I usually do not do that.
So I will say, it is much better now.
So unless there are other issues, the one I have cared the most about, slow to load WSS. seems to be resolved.
