Performance issues loading embedded assemblies

[Lakritzator]

I was wondering if it's possible that I did something wrong, or if it's the assembly-loading process, if it takes about 2-3 seconds for every assembly to load. Maybe you have any tipps to speed up the process?

I currently have an application which loads 6 embedded Assemblies which takes 17 seconds to "start", which means I cannot use LibZ. I once wrote something similar, and had the same issues, maybe there is a possibility to use a loading cache (first write to file, and load from there?

Could signing them help?

I don't know, but I have to say I have no such problems. Maybe The difference might be that because for some assemblies they need to be save to disk before being loaded you antivirus decides to scan them every time? I really don't know what your problem is caused by, but it is not normal. Try different machine? Different setup? I know it will not solve your problem but may confirm hypothesis.
