Description
Whenever a build/simulation is run, OMEdit is freezed for a period of time, then it comes back to life.
This period starts from the time you press Simulate to the time the compiler emits the C code and the gcc compiler is called.
It will be a huge improvement to let another thread/task to run the OM compiler, without freezing OMEdit.

I fully agree with this request, but in fact it's been already formulated 8 months ago in #4598. Please follow the discussion there.
As a side remark, the new OMC API that we will release in 1.13.0 and the new front-end that we well optionally activate in 1.14.0 and use by default in 2.0.0 will be much faster, so they would improve the user experience from this point of view without the need of a radical redesign. But I agree that a more multi-threaded implementation that avoid the UI to freeze for more than a few seconds would be a major improvement.
