Red Orchestra takes a long time loading maps
That tip come from FAQ RedO very interesting of the official site. Most of common errors are described.:
We are looking into the over all cause of this however you may do the following to attempt to improve your load times.
Fix1:
1) Find your Redorchestra.ini file located in the
steam/steamapps/yournamehere/redorchestra/system folder (hint it looks
like a notpad icon with a cog)
2) Change the cache size to better match your ram size
Listed under [Engine.GameEngine].
256 Megabytes of RAM or less
CacheSizeMegs=32
512 Megabytes of RAM
CacheSizeMegs=64
768 Megabytes of RAM
CacheSizeMegs=128
1 Gigabyte of RAM or more
CacheSizeMegs=256
Fix2: Turn of PreCaching
For those who have more than 1 giga amout of RAM
Also in your redorchestra.ini under [ALAudio.ALAudioSubsystem]
Change UsePrecache=True to UsePrecache=False
and under [Engine.LevelInfo]
Change bNeverPrecache=false to bNeverPrecache=true
and under [Engine.NullRenderDevice]
Change UsePrecaching=True to UsePrecaching=False
and under [D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]
Change UsePrecaching=True to UsePrecaching=False
and under [D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice]
Change UsePrecaching=True to UsePrecaching=False
and under [OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice]
Change UsePrecaching=True to UsePrecaching=False
and under [PixoDrv.PixoRenderDevice]

Watch out!, DEpende on wine version, the game fail to really stop and stay in memory. You have to kill the RedOrchestra.exe process..
Two ways:
a slappy :
sudo cp -p /usr/lib/wine/dinput.dll.so /usr/lib/wine/dinput.dll.so.old
