deleting sketch entities w/ in-context relations - slow speed

Hi All,

I've found that when editing a part within an assembly, deleting sketch entities w/ in context relations can take a long time for solidworks to process. For instance, deleting a group of 10 sketch entities takes ~30seconds. I've noticed this is particularly bad when working in one of my assemblies that has a lot of in-context relations.

Is this normal behaviour? Any tricks to speed it up?

I've found that I am able to remove these sketch entities instantly using the snip function, but this is tedious when removing a large group of sketch entities.

Thanks!
