[SOLVED] Speeding up an .exe created with Pyinstaller

Speeding up an .exe created with Pyinstaller

I've converted my program (written in Python 3.6.1, converted using Python 3.5.3) from a .py to an .exe using Pyinstaller. However, it is incredibly slow at loading (it takes roughly 16 seconds, compared to the <1 second when running in IDLE), even after I optimised what I though the problem was (importing tons of modules, so I changed the code to only import the parts of the modules that are necessary). That sped it up a lot when running it in IDLE, but when I created an .exe out of it it was exactly the same (and I did check that I was using the right .py file). I seems like Pyinstaller just packages all modules that you have installed on your system into the .exe, instead of only the small parts of the modules that are actually being used (when using --onefile). How can I make sure that Pyinstaller only installs the necessary parts of the modules or otherwise speed it up, while still using --onefile and packaging it into a single .exe?

from os import path, remove
from time import sleep
from sys import exit
from getpass import getuser
from mmap import mmap, ACCESS_READ


my_file = "Text To Speech.mp3"
username = getuser()
no_choices = ["no", "nah", "nay", "course not", "don't", "dont", "not"]
yes_choices = ["yes", "yeah", "course", "ye", "yea", "yh", "do"]


def check_and_remove_file():

    active = mixer.get_init()
    if active != None:
        mixer.music.stop()
        mixer.quit()
        quit()
    if path.isfile(my_file):
        remove(my_file)


def get_pause_duration(audio_length, maximum_duration=15):

    default_pause, correction = divmod(audio_length, 12)
    return min(default_pause + bool(correction), maximum_duration)


def exiting():

    check_and_remove_file()
    print("\nGoodbye!")
    exit()


def input_for_tts(message):

    try:

        tts = gTTS(text = input(message))
        tts.save('Text To Speech.mp3')
        with open(my_file) as f:
            m = mmap(f.fileno(), 0, access=ACCESS_READ)
        audio = MP3(my_file)
        audio_length = audio.info.length
        try:
            mixer.init()
        except error:
            print("\nSorry, no audio device was detected. The code cannot complete.")
            m.close()
            exiting()   
        mixer.music.load(m)
        mixer.music.play()
        sleep(audio_length + get_pause_duration(audio_length))
        m.close()
        check_and_remove_file()

    except KeyboardInterrupt:

        exiting()


from pygame import mixer, quit, error
from gtts import gTTS
from mutagen.mp3 import MP3


check_and_remove_file()


input_for_tts("Hello there " + username + ". This program is\nused to output the user's input as speech.\nPlease input something for the program to say: ")


while True:

    try:

        answer = input("\nDo you want to repeat? ").strip().lower()
        if answer in ["n", no_choices] or any(x in answer for x in no_choices):
            exiting()
        elif answer in ["y", yes_choices] or any(x in answer for x in yes_choices):
            input_for_tts("\nPlease input something for the program to say: ")
        else:
            print("\nSorry, I didn't understand that. Please try again with yes or no.")

    except KeyboardInterrupt:

        exiting()
