Why is Layout so slow!?

Layout too slow to use

I was thinking more of when you export an image from SketchUp. Then it has to render the whole scene to a large image, and it does it quickly. Also when you make new scenes, you do get a warning that making scene thumbnails can take a while, but it then goes on to make dozens of screen thumbnails in a couple of seconds. If SketchUp can make thumbnails that fast, LayOut ought to be able to as well.

See my validation here - those of us who are professional users need better performance. When I uploaded my problem file to the forum everyone apart from a SU dev jumped on me saying “you’re file’s too big.” But the point is, that’s what i need to work with. Layout doesn’t seem to be able to work in a professional capacity, it feel like it only works for small/hobby/DIY projects.
