As best I understand it, your computer has to playback the entire game to date to understand what the current game state is, so the catch up cannot be eliminated entirely. Your computer doesn't have to show you the game while it is being played back, so some time savings are probably possible. You can get at least some of the way to this manually; type "/luaui disable" or some such, and zoom in to a corner of the map so you aren't looking at the entire battlefield.
