Description

At the moment when the Go To References is triggered, it will have delay showing the popup, which impact user experience.

Would it be possible to lazy load the results for all Go To methods/functions so that popup is displayed immediatly and resulsts are streamed?

Research direction

The issue names Go To References and the other Go To methods/functions, but gives no file or test. Start by locating those command entry points and the existing popup and result flow; done means the popup appears immediately and results are streamed for each Go To method.
