Long setup time before initial time step for study for model with large number of probes

I have a model with over 2400 probes, and it takes about 4 hours before it starts taking the initial time step for the study. I created a simpler model with varying number of probes and logged the time it took before it started the initial time step. I found that the number probes seems to scale as O(n^3), which means at around 1800 probes, the simple model takes over an hour to start up. Is there a particular reason why probe setup is an O(n^3) operation?
