Have an option to set the default view in ArcCatalog window to table. When you have millions of records in a feature class it is very slow to draw the geography in the preview window. Even if you hit the escape button in can take 20 or 30 seconds for the view to stop drawing. The table view opens much faster and with large datasets one is usually more interested in viewing the data as opposed to the geography.
