Yes. There is a penalty for iterating through all the annotations of a
given type. Imagine you have a token annotation and a document with 10K
tokens (not uncommon).
We wrote a method that doesn't have this performance penalty and
bypasses the type priorities.

Hi Philip,
thanks for this pointer. I tried it and the function works well for me.
I will test it a bit more...
Thanks,
Katrin
