Hi Everyone,
When downloading a full node wallet, if you want your syncing to be faster, you will need to download the bootstrap file separately.
In some cases you will also need to download and install the zcash parameters. Pirate Chain First Mate Kaks, has put together a list of instructions to make your journey easier.
