We ran into a similar issue at Central Valley in Week 2. We were behind schedule quite a bit, so we had teams unplug their driver stations immediately after the match ended and the next match would plug their stations in as quickly as possible. The driver stations for the next match would connect to the FMS, but the next match wouldn't be pre-started yet, so they wouldn't see communications with their robot yet. Most of the time, we had to have teams restart the driver station application. But even then, the delay wasn't huge.

I think the biggest delays come during eliminations, because alliances will face back-to-back situations and this requires a field timeout. Tack on a timeout or two and there's a slightly longer today. Still, most regionals are ending on time or earlier than expected.
