A minute or so is completely normal.loading the same character causes it to take longer to load. Looking into the log i found this

I loaded the same character just to try and isolate the issue but the same happens with every new character i add regardless.
Any ideas ? having a char load in 1 minute is one thing, having every other character take one minute more for each character you load is insane.
I will have to say that this happens when i load custom characters that are saved as scene subset.
loading standard characters doesn't make them take progressively longer to load.
It'll only get longer as the models get higher quality, unless Daz decides to rebuild the software foundationally. Even with a faster computer. It's usually the character being loaded with all the morphs and such. I believe there are some plugins/scripts/etc. that can take care of this. Other things can be causing this as well, some of the Inked Tattoo assets cause quite long loading times, for one reason another. Couldn't tell you why.
As for saving characters as a scene subset, I personally find that quite inefficient, but that's totally subjective. Try saving your character and his/her clothes as their respective presets (File > Save As > Character Preset and File > Save As > Wearables Preset, respectively.). My speeds seem a bit faster doing it that way, but that's completely circumstantial.
