Material editor is very slow in R6

Hello,

It takes a lot of time to display the materials in swatches.

In WIP it is also slow.

Is this getting better?

Is it possible to switch the preview of the thumbnail to very low quality until everything is loaded and then once is done, gradually increase quality?

otherwise i get this:
