I've recently set up a new machine with TDE. For reasons I can't figure out, when I log into TDE 
on the new machine the startup screen needs about 4-5 seconds to get past the "Loading settings" 
step. On the old machine this takes a split second, so on the new machine this is several times 
slower. The new machine has a faster SDD and comparable CPU (more cores than the old one, but 
that's probably not relevant here) so I don't see a good reason why this is so slow. I know there 
is a setting in TCC to disable configuration checking on login, which I did. It seems to 
*sometimes* work, i.e. occasionally "Loading settings" will take a split second, but for the most 
time it still takes 4-5 seconds. Does anyone have a clue what's going on here?
