Apparently Unnecessary Rebuilds of Drawings

When drawings are first opened and are shown "lightweight" it takes
very little time to switch from one sheet to another or from one
drawing to another.

As components are resolved, the need for rebuilding arises. This is
understandable; however, I think the rebuilding suffers from notable
performance problems:

1. For example, a rebuild takes place on sheet 1, then another rebuild
occurs when the user switches to sheet 2. This makes sense, but WHY is
a rebuild needed when the user immediately swithches back to sheet 1
after having made NO changes (or after having ONLY modified
annotations)?

2. Not being able to stop a rebuild is a major performance nuisance.
If the user wants to abort a rebuild (just as with a part or assembly)
WHY can't the ESCape key be used?

3. When drawings are being closed and the user opts NOT to save, WHY
is rebuilding initiated during the closure of the file? (Sometimes
this action prompts me to simply kill SolidWorks via the Task Manager
rather than wait for the apparently useless rebuilds!

If such symptoms bother you as well, then please let your VAR and
SolidWorks know (via Enhancement Requests, etc.)

Per,

I don't get it either, except the programmer who wrote it in??
Makes one go... hmm??????$$$$$$$$????????$$$$$$$?????????$$$$$$$????????

BTW, this is very common with models with configurations, which are
already resolved.
There is something triggering or requesting that the model or drawing
resolve and there is no reason for it.
