Why does it take so long to verify client when joining a SF server vs. vanilla. Vanilla verifies in about 7 sec but SF takes up to 2 minutes!

Re: SF: Verifying Client = Zzzzz...Zzzzz
Does anyone really speed through the client verification? If so they better post some system specs. Otherwise, I think this is really an issue with the servers on EA's side. I've noticed this takes longer (for me) evenings and weekends while there are more players trying to get on. Of course this could be a placebo effect.

I think it has to do with SF verifying data for both SF and BF2, whereas BF2 only verifies data for BF2 only.
If it only verified data for SF only then it would take the same time or less though because its an expansion it has to verify data for both, atleast that seems to be the way it works.

Loading is the same for me in both "games", about 23-25 seconds (verification not included).
The verification is a different story though.. In BF2 its almost instant, sometimes I have to wait 1-2 seconds. In SF, on the other hand, verification takes about 10-15 seconds..
Everything runs worse in SF than BF2, so I'm not surprised that the Verification takes longer aswell.. Hopefully they'll optimize SF in 1.2.
