Two part answer here.

First, I have found that BIAB 2021 loads faster than ever before. After it has been loaded once at about 12 seconds, it reloads in under four seconds on my system. RealTracks also seem to regenerate faster, and I recall some mention of that as a feature.

Second, yes, I did put the BIAB program on an SSD. I chose to use a separate one, not my boot drive, but it does indeed feel 'snappier' to load and run. The time to regenerate tracks, though, will remain nearly the same as it depends primarily on the CPU.
