Details

Unrelated to the bug about typing while searching being slow (whichever one it is, can't find it at the moment).

We are selecting and displaying the source as we move the arrow keys, so if you press down or up a few times quickly, it feels really sluggish and I got lost as to which source I was at while I was waiting for the UI to catch up to my events.

We should either debounce this a little or wait till a user hits enter or closes the popup before we select the source.

I experienced this while chrome debugging, but it isn't chrome specific. Probably we just happen to have fairly large files in Firefox.
Summary: Selecting files in the search dropdown via arrow keys is slow → Navigating files in the search dropdown via arrow keys is slow
Cmd+P file searching dropdown, to be specific.
Product: Firefox → DevTools

Our new debugger is fast! :)
