Dropdown performance is very poor.

I'm having 4000 records in the dropdown and its taking time to open. Is there any solution for this ?

Unfortunately, this is a dup of #918, among others. Loading that many items would probably be slow for even a native select. You might have better luck with a plugin that allows async or on-demand loading. For example: https://select2.org/

Is this https://select2.org/ package have multiple selection with checkbox?

On the desktop, it's working fine but on the mobile devices, bootstrap-multiselect performance is very poor. Not even scroll is working

any update?

Actually it's due to the implementation of the library. It inserts many individual elements to the DOM one-by-one causing way worse performance than if they were to be generated individually, added to an array or HTML string, then the entire set inserted at the end.
