Do you have any more details? Does this happen with/without plugins on any files in particular? Does it happen on any file/every file/specific architectures? What specifically makes it unusable? Does the ui not update/update slowly/freeze?

[19:41] Just try to open libbinaryninjacore.dylib And while it’s analyzing try to use the tags sidebar [19:43] open the ARM64 lib [19:44] Its adding unimplemented instructions so fast that collapsing doesn’t work and you can’t navigate to any of the entries

This is mostly fixed in builds >= 3655.

There's one small issue which I'm going to file separately and track in another issue which I'll link here. Specifically, when tags are updating you cannot use the up/down arrow keys to navigate to the next item on the list. However you can use the mouse still meaning the impact is now low.
