Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue through the groups.create REST API with more than 20,000 rooms, then reload the application while collecting the requested browser and server logs. Trace which room data is loaded during reload and identify the operation that causes the browser or system to hang. Done means a workspace with this room count can reload without hanging.
