RC - Here are a few tips

-Try loading your components lightweight.
-Put all your fasteners in a "Hardware Folder" and suppress them when not required for Mass Props.
-Form subassemblies. It is easier to work with subassemblies that you can suppress/unsurpress when not required

Also there are lots of tips about working with assemblies from SolidWorks uses.

and in the SolidWorks Blog Community, many designers and engineers have posted tips about large assemblies
