Are you saying the INSANE GTA Online load time is fixed now?

Back in the old day, I literally just throw my hands up and said "I can't wait for this shit anymore, I don't have all day" then rage quit and delete the game.

Rockstar paid the guy like 50K or something for discovering it, and then it was apparently implemented into GTA online. Too bad I quit playing that time black hole years ago.

I watched a YT video about this and they said the guy was paid 10K (way too low imo), a Google search shows different numbers everywhere so it's hard to confirm. But at least the guy got paid, for sure.

As far as I'm understanding it, the game was using a single threading process to load every single items in the game one by one (over 10 thousands in total), then checking again for duplicate.

Yep. I'd long quit the game when they finally figured it out.
