Is there a way to reduce game / frame stuttering when people join mid-mission?

[Sasquatchias]

Something I've always been a bit bothered / annoyed by is that whenever someone specifically joins me mid-mission (when I am the Host) my game tends to start "Stuttering" until they load in, doing little freezes or just freaking out a bit. 

As soon as they fully load in everything goes back to normal, but I was wondering if there were a way to sort of fix this and prevent or reduce the stuttering?

That's weird. Mine doesn't do that.

Sounds like Harddrive accessing textures and/or RAM caching.

You could try basic stuff like running a file check on the game, defrag your harddrive and close background programs to free up system memory.

I can only assume it's a resource thing since I see no change in performance at all when players join.
