New versions of Minecraft take over a minute, old versions took 10 seconds.

The new versions, since getting ready for 1.7, have taken over a minute to load. When I set the Launcher to use 1.6.4, it took 10 seconds to launch.

I did search for open tickets, but all I could find was ones that won't launch at all, and the ones I looked at said to update Java. I checked my Java, according to Oracle, it's set to go.
