Does using `bim.activate_model` take forever, for others as well?

yes, even on small projects. And sometime its so much that i just save and close and open the file again
I have been timing this with watch, currently about 32 seconds :).
Filesize 12 Mb, objects 2 641, Vertices 107 718, Faces 82 118.
Yes!
With voids, showing or hiding (don't remember which) one sometimes also takes a while, or is that just my pc?
Update on this thread: now my model takes 1 minute 34 seconds to return from drawing to model view :(
But from model view to drawing view it takes only couple of seconds.
Filesize 13,5 Mb, objects 2460, vertices 61454, edges 133179, faces 77774, triangles 84626.
Bonsai 0.8.3, Blender 4.5.1.
@Samppa You would need to update to the nightly release to see it, from after Andrej made this commit: https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/commit/c2730a81d63513d24447ec7372fb0d778d06b9ea
Does your model have a lot of sibling type-based elements? I did the early investigation for the resulting change. If you are using lots of these, it will probably execute in roughly 1/10 th of the time now. Issues #5696 and #6923 discuss it, and there was a bit more in PR #6940 which was my dumb fix. Then Andrej fixed it properly.
Any further improvement is a question mark for now.
A-mazing! New record 12 seconds with latest release (returning from drawing to model view! Quite appropriate timing with this fix, thank you @Andrej730 and @sjb007 !
One question, is it possible to not have almost all objects selected when you return to model view?
Sure. Just needs the following line added at the end of the bim.activate_model operator.
Should be fixed after https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/commit/b5e977d7f34e046bec1ccbe4cb4bcdb3eed78fec
@Andrej730 I sometimes wonder if you are deliberately finding different ways of doing the same thing just to mess with me. 😆
The following PR comes in pretty handy as an alternate way of unhiding stuff.
That is, 'alt + click' to unhide things like classes, types, containers, etc.
