(AAA I hear is about to update their UI to version 1.2.5?? so hopefully this will improve the load times).

Not really.

1.2.5 will add 4.09 compatibility to the UI pack.

To improve load times (and also decrease disk footprint) UI needs to be re-packed into SFS files, as HSFX is. I hear this is in the works, but not yet for 1.2.5.

So maybe 1.3?
