Hello, dear developers.
I have issued this question on a bug tracker, but will duplicate it here, if
you do not mind
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17957
<https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17957>
I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I have noticed, that saved xml state file
contains many identical proxies, that belongs to group "sources". These proxies
are actual source proxies, and participating in property of every saved
"GeometryRepresentation" proxy.
So every "GeometryRepresentation" have it's own bunch of GlyphType source proxy
instances (listed in proxy_list Domain), and all of them are saved to a state
file.
I can understand, that saving all of them can be explained by "unified
approach" to saving proxy to state file, but I have trouble with resulting
state file - we tracking it's change with VCS (git, if it matters), and so many
unnecessary (cause they are identical, except GlobalId) proxies saved gives us
additional pain.
As an additional side effect we have increased state loading time. This issue
might be related to appearance of saved GlyphType proxies in a state file:

Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but one can not change the Domain type at
runtime, so this proxy_list will be constant until changed in a
views_and_representations.xml. If so, than maybe there is a way to save
GlyphType proxies to state file only once (or not at all) and reference their
GlobalIds from any other GeometryRepresentation?
Thanks in advance,
Artem Bodrin.
