[QGIS-Developer] sudden performance issues with my QGIS installation

Hi Dimitris, 

Interesting, thanks for confirming. 

It is not the first time I hear that the Browser Panel is slowing down
QGIS too much (even bringing it to a halt almost). 

Now it would be interesting to find out, what, in the browser in your
situation is the culprit. Is it network drives, databases, services? My
first guess would be the network drives. 

This is kind of problematic, as the QGIS devs are more and more
promoting usage of the browser panel (and it is quite useful and
comfortable), but if it is a potential source of slow down ... I don't
know if it is so wise to promote the browser so much. Or at least we
should be more conservative on scanning folders by default.

Suddenly it stopped responding. Sometimes it lags for a minute or more while performing simply tasks (load layer, save layer as geojson etc.).

I have tried the newer version (3.16) and the older one (3.10) but I still get the same performance issues. I have also trired to run it with a new profile and without any plugins. When running it with no plugins it launches faster but then I get the same lag issues when loading layers or running simply analysis (buffer)
