In this particular case, the reason why it takes so long the first time you run a CD-based game on CPS3 it is flashes to NVRAM the actual rom contents. Sharing the NVRAM files, in essence, would be the same offering ROMS for download. In either case, that won't happen here. This is precisely how the arcade games operated when you first turned them on from factory. You only need to do it once and then replays of that title should be fine.
