Since updating to 1.16.100, the game takes over ten minutes to launch. I used the stopwatch app on my phone to time how long it took to go from the Switch launcher to select "Play" on the main menu. All times are MM:SS and rounded to the nearest second.
1. 2:29 - from switch home screen to red mojang logo screen
2. 6:12 - from red mojang logo screen to main menu screen
3. 1:41 - from main menu screen to finish visually loading, including my avatar (which normally is the last item to load). the fancy backgrounds on the "Marketplace" button never load
I also noticed dimensions (nether, overworld) and chunks take much longer to load in the game. The lag is noticeably higher when moving around and running farms.

I launched the game today, and it started very quickly! I'm still on 1.16.101. It took a long time last night, so I guess the fix was on the server side. Anyway this issue should be closed as the problem appears to be addressed. Thank you!

It can also take a while (~1:30) to go from the Main Menu to the Realms/Worlds listing.
