Description
I have a rare scenario where I have a big table field with ~30 columns that is filled with ~100 rows on one entry. Due to the size of this table it takes a while to render it, both on the front-end and in craft, however.. Rendering the table in Craft is nearly impossible as opening the page usually results into a timeout. (system report is all good)
Steps to reproduce
1 Create a big table, add 100 rows
2 Open page in Craft
Craft CMS version
3.7.37
PHP version
8.1.4
Operating system and version
Linux 5.10.47-linuxkit
Database type and version
MySQL 8.0.19
Image driver and version
Imagick 3.7.0 (ImageMagick 6.9.11-60)
Installed plugins and versions
No response

Research direction
The report names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the timeout with a table field containing about 30 columns and 100 rows on Craft CMS 3.7.37, then identify the rendering path involved; done means the page opens without timing out and the table remains usable.
