This very minimal code is running extremely slowly with as few as 3,000 SolarComponent parts in a scene. Now, I know there are ways I could speed up this specific code, however, I'll need to, at minimum, run at least one batch of code like this on every part of any type, to handle a temperature system I have planned. I'm planning to have upwards of several dozen ships in each scene, and and probably something around 100 parts per ship, so getting this performing as well as possible is very important.

c_components is a C# dictionary, not a Godot dictionary, because I know that accessing Godot dictionaries is relatively slow compared to C# dictionaries

I've done some tinkering and found one of the main sources of slowdown is the "as" keyword in the basic_component and solar_component assignments, and I'm really not sure how to get around using that. I'd also like to know if there are any other issues in how I'm structuring this code that could be improved to make it run faster.
