Commented Issue: version 2.0.4 is slow [7423]

Hi,

Some customers tell me that the image browser of version 2.0.4 was slower.

So i have made some investigation.

And i have seen the image browser is fast when he load (after click on image icon).
+/- 200 ms

But when a postback occurs in the image browser (for exemple, click on upload a new file) is is slow
+/- 2 seconds

I have seen the viewstate is littlebit big (65 kb), but i am not sure of this is realy the raison for so much slower.

does the folder contains a lot of images? The Problem is as bigger as the folder gets it gets much slower.

I made a test a last week with 35.000 images (13 gb) and the image browser is unusable and dnn itself too. I optimized the code as much as possible, and added paging (actually it stores it in the view state). But the Current file system in DNN doesn't allow database paging which would make it much faster and the viewstate smaller.

The Only solution would be to write the apis myself.

At the moment the only thing i can do is re-factor the code to make it as fast as possible within the limitations of dnn.
