Extreme slowness finding references

[jwbaldwin]

Environment

• Elixir & Erlang versions (elixir --version): 1.13.3-otp-24

• Elixir Language Server version: latest

• Operating system: ProductName: macOS Monterey ProductVersion: 12.1 BuildVersion: 21C52

• Editor or IDE name (e.g. Emacs/VSCode): Neovim with builtin lsp

• Editor Plugin/LSP Client name and version: neovim builtin lsp

Current behavior

Most lsp functions are fast (as I'd expect) but finding references takes REALLY long to execute:

vim.lsp.buf.references: 10 - 30 seconds to find even a single reference

lsp logs of finding 2 references (edited some information out)

Expected behavior

That it's as fast as all the rest of the functions or at least as fast as go to references in vscode/emacs
