UI / Export Performance Issues with large projects

[lehthanis]

Not sure if this can be fixed because I'm not sure what kinds of project iteration is being done, but I have a VERY large project that was imported from a CAD file, and when Capsule is enabled and I have Capsule project data, any iterative function (such as selecting all objects in a collection or heirarchy of collections) takes FOREVER. In general there's a noticeable performance degrade when Capsule is enabled and there is Capsule data in my large project. I typically have to disable Capsule whenever I want to work on my project, and then re-enable it when I need to export.

I also noticed that upon exporting a very large collection, the file appears in my export folder, but blender is still busy for a VERY long time. I imagine it's iterating through all the objects post-export. My workaround has been to save just before exporting, and when the export file is available, I just manually crash blender and restart it.

I do want to mention, I LOVE this add-on. Very nice work.
