Instancing ? Hard code or Plugin idea ....

[Wegg]

The whole idea of instancing in my opinion is to avoid bulky models. If you have a tree, you will want to instance a variety of leaves on that tree at render time and not have your 3D model be a huge point cloud. This is my subtle way of saying . . . if you are trying to instance 100k models. . . you might need to tweak your pipeline.
