Workaround
The user is dividing the data into smaller files based on species "type" in order to accomplish the clip. In this sample, there are 120+ species types, so they are being grouped into collections of multiple species types. In this way they can perform the clip and other operations, but they still feel it takes significantly too much time to process.
