I have two games which load to the same start up screen. One game has less layouts and less assets, while the other has many. The larger game takes a very long time to load comparted to the first, even though the first layout is exactly the same.

I thought the layouts only load assets when used, so why is the larger game taking so much longer to load?

Nevermind, turns out I had it set to preload all audio sounds (and I have a lot). Turned that off and now it's speedy quick

UGH, but now in Chrome the audio is all delayed by about 5 seconds!

Edited to add (if anyone reads this and cares) that preloading the audio that I need in a layout at the start of the layout, then it works in Chrome. Note that I'm using the latest release R259.
