6189	getElementAnnotation is very slow on Buildings models	Francesco Casella	Per Östlund	"Opening {{{Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.Validation.CoolingCoilHumidifyingHeating_ClosedLoop}}} in OMEdit on my i7 laptop using the latest nightly build took about three minutes, which is unacceptably slow.

I picked the slowest API calls, which I report here
