What should I do about load times? Do I leave them in? Should I use the time on the save? Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if you'll still read this or if you found out but load times are left in due to there being no load time remover on console. Do not use the time on the save that is HIGHLY inaccurate, simply record the run, look at the PC runs to see when the timer starts and ends, and then you'll know.
