There are new controls to improve the performance of the content editor.
Enabling Product Buckets will take care of most performance issues with large catalogs, but in
some cases you will still experience slowness when you click on a product or category node in a
tree and wait for the data to appear in the right-hand pane. This slowness is caused by the tree
control used by the ChildProducts, ChildCategories, and ParentCategories fields. If you are
experiencing slow downs in the content editor because of these fields, use the following new
search based controls instead of the tree controls:
- Child Products Search List Control. Go to
/sitecore/templates/Commerce/Catalog/Commerce Category/, change the ChildProducts
field to use Child Products Search List Control, and then set Source to
Filter=commercesearchitemtype:Product.
- Parent Categories Search List Control. Go to
/sitecore/templates/Commerce/Catalog/Commerce Catalog Item/, change the
ParentCategories fields to use the Parent Categories Search List Control,
and then set Source to
Filter=commercesearchitemtype:Category|_language:en.
- Child Categories Search List Control. Go to
/sitecore/templates/Commerce/Catalog/Commerce Catalog Item/, change the
ChildCategories field to use the Child Categories Search List Control, and
then set Source to Filter=commercesearchitemtype:Category.
