AutoCAD 2016. I suspect I have a corrupt Sheet Set in my templates folder, but figured I'd run it by the forums to see if anyone else has this issue.
When I go to create a new sheet set based on "An example sheet set" and pick Next, it takes about 30 seconds to get to the next screen where I get to select the example sheet set. This pause causes many people to pick Next again, which ends up bypassing the next screen selecting the default example sheet set which usually messes things up for them. (Sorry if this is getting confusing...)
So, I'm wondering what to look for to fix this.
I may end up removing sheet sets from my templates folder one at a time to see if one of them is corrupt. That sounds like meticulous, tedious, time consuming work I don't really want to do right now...
Looking for the easy answer, but I'll post my findings later if I get around to experimenting.

The performance of sheet sets is largely dependent on the following factors: the speed of the network, the number of sheets in the sheet set, and the number of users on the network that are accessing the same sheet set.
A slow network connection can have a major negative impact on the performance of the Sheet Set Manager (SSM). In addition, the more sheets you have in a DST file, the longer it will take the Sheet Set Manager to check the network in order to refresh its status. When you multiply the negative effect of these factors by the number of users accessing the SSM simultaneously—all periodically refreshing a network DST file—it is easy to see how quickly performance can degrade.
Aside from increasing the network speed (something over which you may or may not have control), you can use the following tips to improve performance when working with sheet sets:
Thanks for the effort, but this boilerplate answer does not address my issue.
Accessing the Sheets Sets is not slow. What's slow is just one step in creating a new sheet set.
Typically, we have no problems accessing the sheet sets once they have been created.
Figured it out. It was a corrupt sheet set template.
I renamed the sheet set templates one by one while trying to create a new sheet set from example.
I finally came across the one that was corrupt because now, creating a sheet set from example is back to normal.
Now I need to find out what is wrong with the sheet set template.
