According to most voices on the Steam forums, this beta branch update dramatically decreases the game's loading times, in some cases from over 7 minutes to under a minute.

from over 7 minutes

what. the. fuck?

Did anyone debug what they messed up to cause this?

It's mentioned on the steam announcement. Something to do with translation strings, causing a full reinitialization of all installed mods.
