I just don't know about this. As loading times are getting faster, I'm using VEP less and less. I've got two 12 core trash cans, and I rarely turn on the second one. Templates have their place, but they can get you into a rut. And, it's pretty easy to just set up a big template in Logic Pro.
I'm thinking when the new Mac Pro is released this year, I'll go down to one, single, powerful machine, and maybe not use VEP anymore. If the host app is fast and powerful, VEP is a time consuming extra step.
VEP was really useful back when computers and storage devices were slow, and load times took forever. But, it's becoming less vital all the time. Kind of like getting a blurb about the latest version of Toast when you hardly ever touch an optical drive anymore.
