SEO's (Solid Element Operations) are one of the major contributing factors to file performance and health. I have seen over and over, excessive and careless application of SEO's crippling files, sometimes to the point that they can not even be opened or edited, usually just that they crash in section/elevation, or can not be navigated in 3d.
It takes a surprisingly small number of SEO's for some computers to tank.
Because of this, auditing SEO's is a major part of what I do for my clients when they come to me with slow, crashy, or otherwise buggy file issues. This is a tedious task, as I have to go element by element and check the little fly-out for elements with excessive SEO's. I currently only check meshes, slabs, and roofs, as those are the primary culprits.
What would be great for a BIM manager and file/project coordinator would be a feature that allowed me to search, schedule or otherwise identify elements by the number of operators and/or targets they have. Maybe a list or index of some kind with a criteria that says something like "Opperations/Connections > 150"
