Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Right now there is no clear showcase of the performance and speed of the SpatialData library, while this is one of it's big benefits.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a notebook opening a large dataset, plotting the overview, querying a subset, aggregating signal and plotting results as quickly. Show the time with a counter and %%timeit per cel.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There is no clear plot of this in the paper. It's similar also to the plotting performance notebook, but more general.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing plotting performance notebook mentioned in the issue and identify a suitable large SpatialData dataset. Build a notebook that opens the dataset, plots an overview, queries a subset, aggregates signal, and plots the results, including a counter and %%timeit for each step; done means the performance showcase is reproducible and covers all requested operations.
