Hi. thanks for reporting this! Did you have similiar problem back in Insomnia? Or is it an insomnium-specific bug?

(That'll help me figure out where to begin debugging)

Hi, in insomnia there was a similar problem but less pronounced. insomnium is approx. 50% slower.

looked like many of these stuff in Insomnia weren't implemented with performance in mind; and in the newer insomnia version they patched some stuff so it is a bit faster; looked like a Ne DB problem

this will be solved when the entire Insomnium backend is switched to file-system
