Description

Limit the number of files/folders shown at the same time to not cause this VERY long loading time and browser not handling the page correctly

ex: https://git.delta-wings.net/tcgdex/compiled/src/branch/master/en/cards
Github: https://github.com/tcgdex/distribution/tree/master/en/cards

@Aviortheking this should be only be a problem if you visit a folder the first time after code change: #10069

"- COMMITS_COUNT: 1000: Only enable the cache when repository's commits count great than."
you may have to less commits - https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/10069/files#diff-07e54da65506d1528f7f446c22a6f723R398

but a configruable limit or paginatin would be a enhancement (I personaly prefere a pagination since the other optin will make some things inaccessible)

Performance hits for this page come from two sources: 1) the time required for git to bring up the list and 2) the server/network/client time associated with rendering that list.

AFAIK (1) is the most expensive by far, so only adding pagination wouldn't help much.
For this, #10069 will help.

Paginating will help with (2), certainly, and with the general usability of the feature.
