The time it takes to load a ruleset depends on the size of the ruleset. Large rulesets take longer to load than small ones. And the size of a ruleset depends on the number of rule artifacts you include in the ruleset.

You can, however, reduce the size of the ruleset using the Embed Rule Properties property of the rule project. When the ruleset is generated you can control whether or not the rule properties are embedded in the ruleset. If you do not need to access the rule properties of the rules in the business rule application, you can set this property to False to avoid the memory overhead incurred in embedding the properties of the rules in the ruleset. By reducing the size of the ruleset you can reduce the time it takes to load the ruleset.
