Improve performance of drawings, xrefs and blocks by removing CRS and map information.
If you want to improve performance it is a great idea to convert certain x-refs and/or blocks into AutoCAD (not Civil 3D) drawings. In fact if you go into the File menu and use the 'export Civil 3D' option it will convert the civil 3D objects into proxies.
This is great if you only need to see certain civil 3D objects as overlays in plan view. (x-refs). For example: You can create a 2D drawing of a survey drawing to speed up loading times in certain drawing sets. A 2D drawing will remain in the correct place if you insert it at 0,0 and the CRS coordinates of all the project drawings remain the same.

File w/ map information embedded in drawing.
You can also make a wblock of the drawing.
DO NOT INCLUDE THE MAP INFORMATION
SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS!
What is the map info? Why does it include it in drawings? The CRS coordinates. Once one drawing in the set establishes them you can have other blocks created in that drawing share the same origin point of 0,0.
