Geometry Editor very slow for non drawing tasks on mac

[DavidGoldwasser]

Tested with 2.6.0. QTWebEngineProcess gets pegged at 100%

• going to story detail to change floor to floor height is really slow (15 seconds on simple two story model before I could access fields)
• space detail is slower, was at least 2 minutes
• assignments and components seem hardly functional. Very slow, and since there isn't a loading icon to tell me to wait. Since I had not used it before it wasn't clear if I was doing something wrong or now. I did eventually get it to work after waiting for a while.

@macumber one path is to have OS app write "show_import_export" as true in the floorspace.json file, but I assume that would mess up the OS APP GUI. Another option is for the web environment import to change that flag to true? Is there ever a use case on the web environment where you wouldn't want the option to import/export a file you are working on? It isn't clean for users to have to hand edit text file before uploading.

My work around is just on UH post here

There also still seems to be an issue with invalid geometry, I don't know if this is issue with json file or the json to osm translation. Work around for that is surface_matching_daignostic measure.

@DavidGoldwasser can you retest with the separated application?

[tijcolem]

@jmarrec Can you see if this is reproducible on Linux? And if so, send over to Jason Turner to look into?

[DavidGoldwasser]

@tijcolem I have not tested this that much with the updated qt dependency on mac 3x

Move issue to https://github.com/NREL/OpenStudioApplication

@DavidGoldwasser Any chance you could retest this/report recent feedback please? If it's still problematic, it's possible #510 will fix it
