Hey Sean,
I'm not sure if the unfrozen hierarchies of the parent objects are
propogated to the instances but if that is the case perhaps a freeze of
the parent objects to clear up their history stack might speed things up
a bit. Again, unsure about this. Anyone?

Subject: Instantiate - Bad?
I haven't found all the landmines yet in XSI and hit a bunch in
a recent job.
Is instantiating a model with lots of pieces a bad idea?
Seems like my performance is in the toilet.
If there is a lot of geometry to reuse, is it recommended to go
with referencing and let it be at that and steer clear of instances?
