Struggles with heavy scenes

Hi there.

I came across your viewer from the Rhino Forum and thought I would try it with some of our files that I would love a viewer for, but its struggling to even open the files. It gets stuck at 20% parsing:

The scene in question has a very large number of block instances (a few hundred thousand), but the block is very simple (just a sphere).

Rhino can open it, but the viewport performance is very bad. I was hoping to find a web viewer that properly uses instancing to render block instances, because then its no problem at all to render that many instances and the viewport being realtime.

Is your viewer on Github so I could maybe try to add that ability and open a PR?

Hey @ArminSeltz - I have just pushed a fix and also tested it with 600k block instances and its running at 60fps on my end. For now a known limitation are text dots that are part of blocks, which still get placed independantly and will still load slowly at high instance numbers.

Let me know how it goes on your end and if the fix resolved the issues
