It's not really scientific for me that more chunks bogs down projects.

It's something that started bothering me in like DP 8 or 9 or whatever, so I just stopped the practice.

I have not really tried it in years (as in DP 11 / Big Sur), as I don't work that way anymore.

And yes, as someone said above, I do have really heavy track counts, both back then and now.

Occasionally now I end up with a few extra chunks for alternate mixes or whatever, and save-times haven't been bad, but i don't try to have 20-plus chunks anymore.
