    You can disable Cache indicators for a Timeline by clicking on the ribbed Menu - see image below

    Do take note that green, Cached Indicators is a visual indicator that the related timeline frames have been cached to RAM. Any change you make to a property, to a layer within the cached frames will result in AE having to create new cached frames. In short, what you are experiencing is expected behavior.

    You may also want to explain how the slowdown manifests itself and what are your expected results.
