Hi,
I made quick tests with some dataset and I failed to see any performance issues. Could you create an issue with some data sample and project? Is it the index building that take a long time (there is a progress bar displayed at the bottom of the map close to the mouse coordinate information while index is currently building) or is it when you move your cursor on the map that the snaping information takes time to appear. Or is it when you pan the map? You can enable snapping for specific range of scale, avoiding building index at very large scale where snapping is useless.
