Dear coot users,

I am wondering if there are any suggestions on how to speed up the usage of
coot. Specifically the interactivity drops with the size of the molecule
being edited. Not neccesarily for the local refinement itself but for
refinement setup and accepting of changes. In my lab we routinely work with
large (MDa) complexes with multiple (50-150) chains. With these chains open
as individual objects editing is fast and efficient and overall we think
that the user experience is very pleasant. However when working on merged
models, for example after a refinement step in PHENIX, the time to set up
the constraints for local refinement and for accepting those changes
increase significantly. As an example, working on a 24000 aas complex,
accepting a local refinement will take up to 15-20s mostly independent on
if backups are enabled or not. I can split the chains and then remerge them
to decrease the time, however, since many edits require inter-chain
restraints this rapidly becomes inconvenient. Apart from turning off
backups and removing hydrogens are there any further recommendations?
Specifically for speeding up setting up restraints and especially accepting
refinement?

Currently I am working on a DELL XPS15 laptop (i9-9980, GTX1650, SSD NVME)
running coot 0.9.1-pre via CCP-EM 1.4.1-144-g842729a

Best,
Victor
