I just did some testing. A stock version of VaM (with no custom content added) loads in 16 seconds on my computer. If I copy over my 31GB addonPackages directory, load time increases to 41 seconds. People with slower systems are reporting it can take several minutes to start up.
I imagine that this delay is caused by Vam having to look through all the var files, extracting morphs, clothes, hairstyles, etc, and adding them to their various menus. Would it be possible to pre-process the addonpackages directory so this doesn't have to be done from scratch every time VaM starts? Maybe add it to the cache?
