This thread is hilarious. I just wanted to say that if you are having really bad scene load times in Maya and it's not file I/O (perhaps from references) then it's often long init times for certain nodes. Thinking of the wrap deformer specifically. Wraps init on scene load and they can be terrible on dense meshes. It was so bad on one scene at Blizzard that Cameron Chrisman completely rewrote a wrap deformer that stored the bind information in an attribute instead. Our scenes were 1GB but they loaded fast. We still had to eat the long bind time but only once.
You can try decreasing wrap distance to as small as possible as a workaround or even go low res->bones riding on surface -> skin deformer or some other such hackery. Maya.
