Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is named. First reproduce the lag with the attached all_process.txt context, a tens-of-thousands-line XML file, and the function list view while scrolling. Done means identifying and fixing the sluggish scrolling behavior and verifying that browsing remains responsive on a large XML file.
