Why does the GEN Firmware take so long to load homebrews? It seems the Gen firmware is scanning all subfolders of a game before actually loading it.
The M33 firmwares don't have that flaw.

The upper and lower screen are both the same console (Phat). In both tests, it is running at full speed (333/166). The memory stick is an official one (Sandisk 1GB)

The slowness of the Gen firmware is directly related to the number of files/folders in the game's directory. GenyUS, I beg you, please fix that ;)
