Hi Kate,
I was creating a new SFDX project via TWS in our existing SFDX project repository folder with 3,732 Files, 476 Folders, so TWS will automatically create a solution including this SFDX project(TWS SFDX project creation process kind of overwrites some config files from exsting SFDX proejct repo folder)
The SFDX protect/solution creation process takes about 3-5mins via TWS, and everything works fine after creation but every time when close the solution and then re-open it, it takes 3-5mins as well.
Using Salesforce DX CLI does not have the issue since it just simply overwrites some existing files in our repo folder as below, I think key issue is with loading TWS solution with larger project like the managed package we use
Please kindly let me know if there is anything we can do to improve the loading speed
