Yes, Anno implementation right now is an external functionality with ghost
blocks etc. not native to the DWG file and is slowing things down. A typical
version1.0 behavior, even though it is useful.
I suspect the next format change for DWG is the cure, which is what, another
two versions away? May be less quirky in LT2009 too, we'll wait and see.
