Select action is slow when number of selectable options is huge

[iamdannychan]

In our case, there are around 10K+ selectable options. The select action (from left hand side to right hand side) is slow (which takes around 2 to 3 seconds to select 1 option)

Hi, Handling 10k items on the front end I don’t think is a good idea, no matter what’s the plugin you are using. I guess you have to figure out a way to have those 10k items paginated somehow.

In my case, the "search" function can take up to 30 seconds and I am only using 2800 items in my left list.
It gets reduced to less than one second if I use multiselect.js instead of multiselect.min.js (don't know why).

These are the settings I am using:

        fireSearch: function (value) {
            return value.length > 0;
        },
        keepRenderingSort: false,
        sort: {
            left: function(a, b) {
                return a.text > b.text ? 1 : -1;
            },
            right: function(a, b) {
                return a.text > b.text ? 1 : -1;
            }
        },
