Loading Times
No, but my spouse’s much older and slower computer experiences longer load times than my newer, faster computer.
I’ve been experiencing longer than acceptable loading times for weeks. I blame the 14.5GB Gw2.dat file. What a terrible way to store data!

I’ve been so upset about not being able to defragment the GW2.DAT file that I’ve gone through my cabinet, dated all of my canned foods, and reorganized them by name (alphabetic) and expiration date.
Mars, that made me laugh soo hard..THANKS
For load times, ive noticed a slight increase but that might be due to the fact that you pointed it out to me and not actually a real increase
My wife and I are both also experiencing longer load times. We have top of the line, home-built computers that were punching through load screens like a hot knife through butter prior to the 7 October update. Load times have nearly doubled.

Was wondering if I’d being imagining that Lion’s Arch was taking longer to load than normal today, so I’m guessing it is judging by the above comments.
I have noticed longer load times since the patch and the problem is not my PC. I am running a pair of 128GB Samsung 830s in Raid 0, I have 8GB of 1600 memory and a 4.5 2500k.
Same here, apparently longer loading time since last patch. On a 8GB RAM + SSD + i7-2600 PC, I have never felt that “I am waiting” in the loading screen of GW2 until the recent patch.
Longer load times for me as well. Just started noticing it today. I have an SSD, 16GB RAM, i7 2600k, GTX 560Ti. Load screens usually zoom by after 2-3 seconds, now I’m waiting up to 9-10 seconds. Not a huge deal, but sucks when doing a dungeon and I have to waypoint back to rez and hold the group up.
Longer loading times here as well.
I’m posting on the forums right now because I’ve been stuck in a loading screen in WvW for 5 minutes, it happened earlier in sPVP where it kept me in a loading screen for an entire match. Never had this happen prior to this patch.
