Change the scale of the view to make it easier to constrain, select geometry. Dont define materials in families, define material parameters instead (or possibly sub-categories) as much as possible so materials can be assigned in a project, where they really matter. Shared families can only pass (forward) instance based parameters.

How tangible or detectable that performance gain really is will depend greatly on the scope of your project. This means each project should have its own workset structure based on its own conditions.

When Mechanical is assigned Revit changes the nature of what plan and reflected plan mean. This subtle change occurs because the notion of a plan and reflected plan view means slightly different things to architects and engineers.
