Description

Describe the Bug

Scrolling up and down the folder tree in large vpks (such as TF2's vpks) has a few seconds of lag time, including clicking the small arrow beside folder names to expand them.

Related to #280, but it was closed.

To Reproduce
  1. Open tf2_misc_dir.vpk inside \steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf
  2. Expand the "materials" folder
  3. Scroll up and down, click on folder arrows, etc.
