I noted that the main reason for the additional connections are probably the thumbnail images that we use in Parts. If I open a Part with a vaulted thumbnail, a new connection is established.
I am actually familiar with this thumbnail specific detail. It´s a known behavior of Aras Innovator and I remember I had discussions with support about this one years ago. Since a few years I ignore the issue cause it didn´t do much harm.
Main question: Is it actually something that was fixed?
I tried to reproduce the issue in 12SP10 and I23, but I hardly were able to reproduce it all. So I think it´s something specific in this Innovator version 12SP7
This may not fix the speed problems of my affected users, but maybe is an important hint to solve the puzzle
