Leica M240 & Co: Quicker Startup by exFAT Format?

Sandisk Extreme Pro 32GB 95 MB/s

 

FAT:   2.5 - 3 seconds to shutter open

exFAT:  ~1.5 seconds to shutter open

 

I initially went down to about 2 seconds with an allocation unit size of 32kb.. I tried 64kb and 128kb and it seemed to go a bit quicker.. averaging about 1.5 seconds...  Anyone have any thoughts on how the allocation unit size setting could affect speed.. storage?

Did you use a stopwatch folks? Was impossible to go significantly below 2s in the extensive tests i've done a couple of years ago and bigger cards than 64K proved hardly faster since then. BTW FAT/exFat is not an issue with SD Formatter. FWIW.

1.5 seconds is about what I'm getting too.
