What kind of previews do you have for your photos in LR?   If you have LR
build 1:1 previews of the files you are working on, they will pop onto the
screen immediately.  I think Smart Previews do, too.  It is the
Standard-sized previews that are very slow to load.  You can set LR to build
1:1 previews and then discard them after a certain amount of time to save
space.

Hope this helps.
