Does it always take forever for 1.7 games to load?

I might just end up stripping out all the script mods and sticking with AM/NRaas mods as these are the only ones getting regular updates.
There a basically three reasons to update a scripting mod - 1. to implement new features, 2. to squish bugs and 3. to adapt the mod to a changed code base. If there are no feature or code base changes and nobody reported bugs to the modder and he didn't stumble on bugs himself, then there's no reason to update a mod, is there?
"Regular updates" isn't necessarily a good indicator for the quality of a mod or the effort of the creator.

Or... As in the case of two mods I got shot of, the creator last updated them in August and hasn't been heard from since. The mods were broken by the latest update - either completely, or damaged enough to cause lag, which means that there's no point keeping them in my game.

Well, in that case these mods are more like abandoned than lacking regular updates, right? And if "getting regulars updates" means the same to you as "supported", the part about being AM/NRaas being the only mods of that kind might be considered as kind of insulting.
