Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: Nvidia GTX 1080
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz 4.20 GHz

Blender Version
3.4.0 Beta (Master D16507)

Short description of issue
Whenever I open the asset browser, or Geometry node's add node menu, Blender freezes for 1 to 3 seconds. (sometimes for even longer in the asset browser itself)
I have 3 asset libraries located on an external HDD, which apparently take quite a few seconds to load.
I'm unsure if them being on a HDD plays a role, but this makes Blender's geometry nodes and asset browser almost unusable for me.

Steps to reproduce

  • Create one or more asset libraries on a external Drive
  • Open the asset Browser or attempt to add a node in Geometry nodes
  • See Blender freeze as it attempts to collect assets

Sorry about that, I wasn't sure if what I was encountering was exactly the same as the issue you mentioned ^^'
