LeoCAD has a very nice (IMHO) solution to this. It enables user to select
which bricks should be shown or hidden, so by making only the bricks
required for next step visible, and hiding them before the two-next step,
you can go faster. I've done ~2000 piece models with LeoCAD and know well
what the meaning of slowness, since I think the MLCAD suffering from the
same problem. Besides, MLCAD is at the very beginning of its life which
probably ads more (LeoCAD already went rather much and, it's performance is
much much better than the beginning and it has many performance enhancers
like background rendering and so)

Yeah, me thinks just the same..:-) Trying OpenGL could be nice, since most
of the video cards today supports OpenGL in a way.
