Switching between Test and Live takes 15-20 minutes

<p>When I switch between US English and Public Test (and back), LP4 insists on checking all game files every time. According to DiskMon, something like 30-40,000 disk reads then happen over a 15 minute period and the system is nearly locked up due to high CPU load.</p><p>I could understand if this happened once, but it is happening every time. That is totally unacceptable.</p><p>-= Therendil =-</p>

<p>Giving this a test myself and I'll submit a report on it.</p>

<p>Thanks! Should have mentioned more detail: The "Checking Game Configuration" stage goes quickly and reports "All files are up to date". It's the next stage of "Checking All Game Files" that does the excessive disk work. There is no progress indicator while this happens.</p><p>I was wondering if "Validate Game Assets" is getting triggered on each switch.</p><p>-= Therendil =-</p>
