The new games DO take ages to load. This is down to their sheer size, some 4 to 5 Megabytes, and needing to be freshly loaded in full each session. their server cannot deliver the uploads fast enough for all their players to be downloading so much content each time they change games.
This is the MAIN factor that causes me to play sparingly at Lasseters.
In past incarnations, it was possible to set these casinos to generate a local cache of much of the game graphics files, and this made loading far quicker, with less being requested from the server to load each game.
I have noticed that the game files DO get stored in the explorer cache, and this helps if you flip back to a game in the current session, but logging off deletes this cache, and results in the games having to load in full at the next login.
It MAY be possible to tweak IE locally to keep the Lasseters files locally cached, and this might help.
Do I know how - no, at least not yet
