Has anybody found a way to speed up the OGG decoder functions in PB? Or should I just use WAVs if I want the sound to load fast?

It's more of a question of streaming the data insted of loading it all at once
it better to use somthing such as fmod or bass or even openAL if you want fast loading and streaming of sound files

I had considered FMOD and downloaded it to try and figure out how to use it, but I have a hard time justifying a DLL that is over 150k when my exe is only 20k.

Yes, if your sounds are longer than just a second or something,
streaming is the only way to go.
Since you're concerned about size:
