Improve services performance

**Description**
Currently validation lacks proper filtering support.

**Proposed solution**
Add configurable filtering with sensible defaults.

**Priority**: Low/Medium

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the service validation code and existing filtering configuration, then determine the expected defaults and scope with the maintainers. Done means configurable filtering is implemented with sensible defaults and its behavior is covered by tests.
