Issue description:

When a Creative Bin is attached to a ME system using a Storage Bus, you try to order the crafting of an item using the content of the Creative Bin, the internal server will freeze for a few seconds, until it finally finished calculating the neccessary resources.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Build a simple ME system
2. Attach a Creative Bin using a Storage Bus
3. Teach the ME system a recipes that uses the contents of the Creative Bin
4. Try to let the ME system craft one of the new recipe
5. See the internal server freeze for some time

Version (make sure you are on the latest version before reporting):

Forge: 34.1.12
Mekanism: 10.0.11
Applied Energistics 2: 8.1.0-alpha.3

I am going to try and find where it is stuck for so long, but i guess it will be looping between AE2 and Mek code.

What item(s) did you test with? If the recipe has items that need NBT, it ain't a Bin issue

With a bunch of different things, the easiest(thus the one i tested in a new world again after restarting the game) was having sand in the bin(just plain sand, without any nbt) and trying to craft sandstone from it(again, without nbt afaik).

This sounds like it is a bug on AEs end? The bin literally only has a single slot so its not like it has to be iterated over a bunch or anything.

I reported that here, because i didn't have the same issue with creative Storage Drawers, but if you say its an AE2 issue i will go report it there.

As I said my guess is it is on their end, though you could always profile it to see what the hotspot is in the code.

4e79a76 very minorly improves the performance by making our sided item handler not need to query the world the ~33 million times AE2 queries us. I am going to go ahead and close this though as discussed on discord the bug is on AE2's end as we follow the IItemHandler spec correctly.
