Is this just happening the first time you load a new instrument? Or is 
it also happening even after it has already been loaded in previously? 
Because on a new system, it takes time for Logic to find the associated 
samples the first time it is locating them. If it is just on the 
initial search/load, then EXS Manager from Redmatica will help 
immensely. It links up the instruments with the associated samples in 
advance, so that the first time you load them they are already "linked" 
and load quickly.

If the problem is occurring even after the samples and instruments have 
been linked up, then it is a different problem. Check out the speed of 
your external FW drive(s). Are they daisy chained with other drives or 
audio interfaces? Also, 1 GB of ram in todays world is not really a 
lot. More ram would certainly help the situation - although this itself 
is probably not the cause of the problem.
