It serves mostly as a proof of concept and test to see how doable it is with large files. The geometry of objects is not imported, only attributes, which are mapped to FreeCAD properties. The IfcOpenHouse model, included with ifcopenshell, imports in 4 sec on my ryzen9 machine, for 2700 objects. Larger files like the King Arch file (20 Mb / 750 000 objects) would import in 18 minutes...
