Proof of concept Wagtail StreamFieldPanel that avoids unnecessary rendering of templates used for adding StreamField blocks.
Add smartstream to INSTALLED_APPS.
On your Page models, substitute wagtail.wagtailadmin.edit_handlers.StreamFieldPanel with smartstream.edit_handlers.StreamFieldPanel
When defining StreamField blocks, use smartstream.blocks.ListBlock and smartstream.blocks.StreamBlock in place of Wagtail variants.
