I had to bring in a Solidworks file for an illustration recently. I tried it a few ways. If I recall correctly, I ended up printing from Solidworks to Adobe PDF. In my case, I had to open the PDF in Illustrator for some edits and then save it again as PDF. Then I brought the PDF into the Frame doc.
I don't notice any delay when viewing a PDF of the document created from Frame, but then I don't think the document is as complex. I used a section view of the 3D Solidworks object.
