    Maybe it’s because I’m opted into the beta, so I’m always downloading updates. But it always takes a couple of minutes to launch from scratch for me and my gaming PC is no slouch.

    But once I launch it, I leave it up, I never close it, so it’s never just running in the background waiting for me to pop it up again.
