More to the point, one of the reasons that Sibelius overtook Finale (to whatever degree it has) was that the compile-to-preview times were shorter: in Finale, a large score took "several seconds", whereas in Sibelius is was "instantaneous" (or so the marketing went). In other words, we're not even fighting a "my opera takes five minutes to compile where thirty seconds would be okay" issue — we're looking at "I want to see it RIGHT NOW".
