RE: [Finale] speed

I use soundfonts that are already loaded into my soundblaster card.  As 
my MIDI out is assigned to to the Soundblaster hardware synths, I don't 
see why I need ANY soundfont loaded by Finale.  Is there some way to 
turn that off?

It's because Finale loads the SoundFont bank in memory (20mb+). I tried to
rename the 144.8mb Fluid Release III GM Bank.sf2 and load this 
instead. The
startup time for Finale was even longer!
