@hsamuels said in >5s delay when starting each arcade game:
Does modetest need to check the current and available resolution each time a game starts up? Can it happen once at power-up?
Not sure if you still have the test system around, but we added a modification to runcommand to skip the modeset invocation on systems without KMS (i.e. Pi3 and olders). Give it a try to see if the loading speed is down to the previous timings from the older versions.
