Long Initial Loading Time

For some reason, whenever I initially loading up the game, the time is much longer than it was before 1.17.10. It takes an upwards of 5-10 minutes, and it's very annoying to wait that long.

This starting happening about a few days after 1.17.10 released. I have about 25 worlds on my game, so it doesn't make much sense to me that this issue is happening.

I also have a regular Nintendo Switch.

Is there any way this can be resolved?
