We have a rather large schema with numerous static data linked...
When I turn off the automatic check of static data, the Get Latest and commit refresh operations take only seconds!! (Awesome!)
When i turn ON auto check of static data, it takes almost a minute (yawn!).

It would be really great if I could have the best of both worlds... Do not automatically check static data, but manually check it as I see fit with a separate button on the GetLatest tab that says "check static data now" or something.
