What type of datasource are you loading this in as?  I tried it as an Image 
File (GINI) so I could get the image displays.  Then I selected the 
Imagery->Image Display display and created the display.  On Windows, this was 
pretty instantaneous.

On your Linux system, is the location on an NFS mount or is it local to the 
machine.  That's the only thing I can think of as a difference if you are 
indeed loading the same display type on all systems.

I'll try this today on our Mac system.
