This is non-trivial, because notes are very essentially floating objects.
So you cannot escape the experienced slowness, except by hacking the C++ code.
One idea in that case would be to use a floating object which is positioned
"here"
and to make the implementation of this fast in papyrus mode.

Another (very crude) solution would be to hide the footnote alltogether and
make it reappear in the final version.
