Minecraft Bedrock on Switch has suddenly become extremely slow to load (5-10 minutes)

Have been playing for several months with no issues.  As of this week it now takes an exorbitant amount of time to load the game.  In fact had I not been distracted a few days ago I would have continued to think that it was just completely locked up.

In addition I am getting the "character failed to load" errors and in game performance has begun to stutter a bit despite there not being a large number of mobs or "animated" blocks.  

The worst issues however is the extended length of time it takes to load the game, load a world and save a world.

Today I tried starting Minecraft using my (parents) account as well as my older son's account.  The parents account loaded Minecraft super quickly.  Of note I have no worlds or downloaded content for Minecraft on the parents account.  Then I switched to my older son's account.  His loaded more slowly but what I would consider the "normal slow" for Minecraft.  He does have a number of worlds and downloaded content.  Finally I tried my youngest son's account, the one having the issues.  He also has a number of worlds and downloaded skins/mods (I have tried disabling all skins/mods).  Once again the Mojang loading screen with the grey bars took ~5 minutes to load.  Then upon selecting the world he wants to play in again the "generating world" loading takes an extended period of time, approximately 12-15 minutes.  

 

I am not sure if this is related but I noticed when looking at cloud saves that the parents and older son's accounts were saved.  The younger son's account seemed to be stuck in needing a save.  I went ahead and had it do a current save.

We are also seeing the "error loading character 1" (repeated for 2,3,4) when starting the game in the problem account.

Does anyone from Mojang even read these?  It's been two weeks and no contact!  I hate companies that don't offer live phone support.  At least respond to the online support if that is the way you are going to go!

I seem to be having very similar problems with my Minecraft Account. It's entirely possible this is a problem on Nintendo's side and not necessarily Mojang, but I can't say for sure.

However, I have seemed to notice that this is fairly random, and half the time it just won't load the characters but everything else runs fine.
