Progressively longer to initialize Python

So we just came back from an event and I noticed as time went on, the starting of robot code took an increasing amount of time, starting from about 4 seconds at unbag to 15 seconds at bag. It didn't seem to be user code because I have prints at the start and the end of robotInit and it was printing the start message a second or two before the robot code led turns green. I was wondering if anyone else noticed this or has a reasonable explanation for the lag.

Also, kinda related, but halfway through the competition the first deploy stopped working. We had to cancel the first deploy while it was looking for the RIO and restart deploy to get it to work (sometimes multiple times). It wasn't connection or anything because I made sure the drive station showed Robot code led green before deploying but it was no help..
