Image sequence on material = SLOW

[AdrienG]

Hello guys, i had this problem before, any time expression or keyframes applied to an image sequence plugged to an octaneTextureEmission = huge drop of viewport performance..
Why is that ? is there any way to skip evaluation of these node for the viewport ? When the object is hidden the viewport comes back to its normal speed

tricks : i have changed the maya evaluation mode in the preferences (from parallel to DG).
It works much better

Thank you Adrien for the update.
Glad to know the evaluation mode helped.
