Any ideas on why SAM would take so long to load and initialize?
I will have to write 100 pages on the conditions under which sam ( for that matter any application ) may run slow. Why don't you share your findings here ? i.e. How loaded the system is ? , Are you running sam remotely or locally ..........
I think there is a thread which explains "how to ask a question in a forum" , please go through it. No hard feeling , just wanted to let you know.

top shows system running at %99 idle
im running sam on the console via the ethernet connection to the MP, so i guess that would be local... however i access the console remotley
hmmm maybe i should login directly to the box and run sam... since i beleive the MP is only 10megabyte card..
wow, that was it... why would they make the MP only a 10 megabyte card
No idea. But glad to see that you identified the problem. I would rather not run SAM on the MP console for many reasons,
- The terminal emulations dont really work at times.
- It is slow
- By default system errors are directed to the console and it can mess up your sam window
