Comment (by eriktorbjorn):

 Thanks for the explanations. Here are the file lists from my Macintosh
 discs:

 Leisure Suit Larry 6:
 https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1Jw72TIO8syKEHP6BZmyvDLBhYaBlOOoz

 Leisure Suit Larry 7:
 https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1dgE0HVz1jY3S11NaXcldzBmrjY03m3Xo

 Phantasmagoria 1:
 https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1akJ4ZIaqJ3WYz8zmydJhTlb4ZP3JNnfn

 Gabriel Knight 2: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders

 Please let me know if there are any files you need to know more about.

 The startup times for Leisure Suit Larry 6 and 7 are 25-30 seconds on my
 computer the first time. If I try it again, while everything is presumably
 still in the operating system's disc cache, it's almost instantaneous.
 Maybe it would be faster on an SSD disc (not to mention a newer computer),
 but I only have a relatively small one. The bulk of my data, including my
 ScummVM games, is on a traditional hard disc.
