strange plugin behavior

Hi,

running Maya 2011 with the latest maxwell plugin gives some strange behavior of the attribute editor when a MX-material is selected and a loss in Maya performance.

Everytime I open a scene with maxwell materials (in may case about 90 materials) maya uses 100% CPU load of one core
and performs extreme sluggishly.
With the Attribute Editor open, and one MX-material selected, you can see the Maxwell-plugin cycling through all the materials.
The material properties area, under the material layer display of the attribute editor constantly switches through all the materials for several minutes! (in may case 10mins). The props of the selected material in not displayed!

Is there a solution for this problem?

edit:
take a look at the screenscapture to see the problem:
