In light of this though, I think once we get an object manager it just shows that under the hood MOI is capable of larger assemblies and isn't just for small products. I'm looking at tools like SpaceClaim and Innovate which cost far more but yet yield similar in-viewport performance.

Any timeline when we can start playing with an object manager? Once this appears, I'll gladly boast about the capability in MOI for dealing with larger assemblies; imported or not.
