I ran into a similar problem with JLD, it took over 20 minutes to load my data. I just wanted to leave this here if anybody runs into something similar, with [JLD2](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-jld2-jld-in-pure-julia/4753) it only took 50 seconds to load the same data.

```julia
using JLD2
@time load("outfiles/aggregated_results.jld2")
 49.773390 seconds (9.72 M allocations: 2.651 GiB, 7.02% gc time)
Dict{String,Any} with 7 entries:
