A coworker of mine has an industrial plant drawing of our facility, with all the equipment detailed. The drawing takes forever to load & save. Does anyone have any suggestions that might speed up loading & saving? We have tried simplifiying some things (like removing centerlines, hatching, internal details, hidden lines) and nothing really seems to help.

A second question of sorts that also came up was if a user could somehow keep sections of the plant in different drawing files, then somehow link or overlay them in the proper positions on say a 'master' drawing?

TIA.
