# Any way to list the "heaviest" groups/components in descending order? Or display polygon count on visible labels around objects?

In terms of optimizing models (especially those created by freelance subcontractors), is there any way to identify which groups/components are the “worst offenders” in terms of polygon count, texture size, or other parameters?

Whether it’s an on-demand report, or an overlay that shows the relative “weight” of objects, or any other way to narrow down the problem areas… any advice?

Also @slbaumgartner’s (Steve Baumgartner) extension SB\_Statistics\_Probe [SketchUp Plugins | PluginStore | SketchUcation](https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=SB_Statistics_Probe).

Highlights heaviest (most edges) object, and can step through component hierarchy in descending order of “weight”.
