performance issue when too many folders/files in a diretory
my downloads folder got ALOT of shit in it and i was tryna open it and it was lagging heavily
You got the reason right there if you trying to open a folder with that many files/folders.
To handle such scenarios the file_manager.gd script should be updated to load in chunks
Just fix this by slicing the file picker's choices down to a limit like 10 before and after the current choice or any other sane number
@face-hh do you want me to make a PR for this and you to close this issue aswell? the fix should be easy
UPDATE: By limiting item loading to 21 at a time and patching the focus_on to be compatible with this new change, I have significantly reduced the lag of the file picker to the state that it now actually loads your items and works at like 2 fps (further fixes coming soon)
