Sorry for the late reply.
The "freeze" you see is due to the soundfont preloading that happens each time VirtualMIDISynth starts.
VirtualMIDISynth is loaded/unloaded by the MIDI client (your emulator) each time it needs it; being this an architectural limit, it can't be avoided.
The best option you have is disable preloading through the configurator (see the configurator options tab).
Version 2.x of VirtualMIDISynth will workaround it, as @supergod suggested, but please consider that it is still far to come... ;)

Unfortunately disabling preloading through the configurator won't help in GZdoom even a bit.
Only installing alpha.
