Default Performance of Models with large amount of solids

D2Net15 is on a distinguished road
I have a model with a large amount of solids (>100), which are in a fluid domain.
In some solids heat is generated and transferred to the surrounding fluid.
The mesh is imported from an external .cbd file, where every solid is a fluid at first.
In the journal file I've written, the fluids (which are solids in reality) will be changed to solids.
This takes really long due to the generation of shadow surfaces.

My question is:
Is there a convenient way to speed up this surface generation (maybe by even omitting it)?

Thanks a lot in advance 🙂
