I would love to know if there is another, faster way to do it now. We used your compunds on our latest project and it took almost 2 hours every time we recalculated the island attributes so we tried not to do that very often. We also did the calculation half way through the modeling process, adding chamfers and final detail after we froze the mesh, so yes, freeze is definitely your friend here.
