Half the time I zone now I get a massive load time 2+ miins. About 20% of the time it will take 5+ mins and i just kill the client cause its obviously not working. Then when i try to log back in I get "unknown error" for 3-5 mins when try to join server.

I will admit this is kinda of an odd bug. I've never heard of anybody taking 2 to 5 minutes to load a zone. Are you absolutely certain this started only after the current patch? The only thing I can think of is that somehow one of the files got messed up and it's taking extra time to process it or skip the error checks. That or the the hard drive is acting up.

If it was the servers I think more people would be affected by this problem as it would be relayed to clients. Considering I've not experienced this issue I doubt it's the servers. That doesn't mean these issues aren't happening to you, but it could be on your end. I'll ask around in game and see if anyone else is getting this issue.
