Bulk Action Select All, so slow on large data

[Frascth]

im using 10.000 dummy data, when use the select all button it took a minute to perform, and sometimes it freezes, is there another way or trick to resolve this?

So the reason it takes a little while, is it's having to retrieve all of the item IDs behind the scenes, based on your filters, searches etc, so that "Select All", reflects exactly what you've searched/filtered for.

The idea behind this is that you can "Select All", then navigate through the pages, and de-select certain items, prior to performing your Bulk Action. This is more useful when you're "Activating" 998/1000 items for example.

It won't be in the next release, but what I can look to do is add in a toggle for the "Select All" behaviour. My thinking is:
By Default: It'll either behave as current
New Feature: It will do nothing in the frontend when you first click "Select All", and I'll add in a method for your Bulk Actions methods to retrieve the "All" items list.

What're your thoughts on the above?

@lrljoe Hello, I am also having the same issue but for me the screen freezes all the time when I check the select all checkbox. I am dealing with records more than 75000. I agree with what you have mentioned above adding a toggle for the "Select All" behavior. I hope you will be able to work on this as a higher priority task and provide the changes in the next release or asap.

Thank you

It's likely to make it in sometime in the middle of next month, as I'm several thousand miles from my computer at the moment and will be for another couple of weeks
