Typically if there is a difference in time to load data it is because it is a new symbol and therefore there is a large amount of data downloaded prior to displaying in the chart.

If this is just about opening a chart for which data already exists, then there should not be any difference in the time to open the chart. Let us know what you find when you look at a chart for a symbol for which you already have data.

Make sure that your Intraday Storage Time Unit is set to 1 tick for the data you are using for the Numbers Bars chart(s). Refer to the information here:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Intraday Data Storage Time Unit (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings)

You can also make sure of this by changing the following Input on the Numbers Bars study:
Numbers Bars: Require 1 Tick Intraday Data Storage Time
