Slow Drawing Response with multiple Sheets

I have an assembly with a couple hundred components. The 3D side response time is fast - no problems. I created a drawing. Its a construction/assembly process so there are more than a few sheets. A little over 20 right now. Doing almost anything in the drawing space has gotten slower and slower as sheets have been added. Then I started wondering why adding sheets downstream is slowing the process on those sheets so badly. It doesn't seem like it should be affected by the number of previous sheets. So I ran a little experiment recording elapsed times.
New Sheet on existing drawing (20 sheets). Full assembly. Changed view scale and shading.
45 Seconds to final placement on sheet
Suppression of one component
9 minutes!
New sheet on new drawing. Same full assembly. Same changed view and shading.
45 seconds
Suppression of same component
24 seconds!
I can't imagine why the number of sheets would effect suppressing and un-suppressing a component on a single sheet.
BTW it takes 9 minutes for the drawing file to initially open (not a WiFi issue - the download is fast) and 9 minutes and 6 minutes respectively (existing and new) to make one detail view - not steller performance either but at least they are similar.
I am just a hobbyist trying to use some spare time constructively (so far). I can always open a book or diddle on the internet so if it matters this is not a complaint - just an FYI. I have used many CAD programs in my engineering life and Fusion 360 is turning into one of my favorites.
Anyway I just thought I would report it. If this isn't a known issue and someone wants to examine the file, I can post it. But it is a drawing connected to a assembly file and I am still working on it so I'm not sure what it is going to look like when you get around to loading it up. And I cant save the files under a new name because the associativity obviously disappears.
