We have a IP Address group used for blocking attacks. The list is pretty large - 2200 items - and its growing day by day.
The list is loaded and handled via JavaScript. At this size it auses performace problems.
One of them is the ability to search in the list.
The search field has a "Search as you type" functionality with a "bad timing" as it does not wait for the user to complete the search term and searches instantly. This in combination with a large list causes performance problems. I'll suggest you:
- add a "[x] instant search" option
- or change the timing to at least 500ms before the search is triggered by a key-press and executed.
Simply said - give the user a bit more time to finish entering the search term.
Also, while you are adding new definitions to a group and the list becomes larger than the screen height, it very time consuming to scroll UP to the + sign to be able to add a new enrty.
