Sheet Sets slow down switching of layout tabs due to .dbl

[smgtech]

I have a dual screen setup and I just noticed while AutoCAD LT was open on one monitor and the project folder I was working on was open in explorer on the other monitor, that every time I switched between layouts in a drawing, a .dbl file within the project directory kept appearing and disapearing.

Why does the Sheet set manager database have to be locked just to read from it's database? Shouldn't this be read only when switching between tabs?

I have tested this on a drawing that does not use sheet sets and everything was like AutoCAD 2000i, which was FAST when switching between tabs!

So does anyone know how I can make AutoCAD LT "read only" the sheet set database instead of opening and locking the database as if it were going to edit the database everytime I switch a tab?

Thanks

Not an option: since 2000i didn't have SSM you know what the other fix is.
