Issue description

Selecteing Data UI Customization option causes Visual Studio to stop responding.

Steps to reproduce

Open Visual Studio Tools -> Options Expand Windows Forms Designer

As soon as clicking on the Data UI Customization option, visual studio stops responding indefinitely, I have to use Task Manager to kill its process.

Diagnostics

No response

@merriemcgaw This sounds like more of a visual studio issue and less winforms.

[Olina-Zhang]

There is an internal issue: https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/DevDiv/_workitems/edit/1146329, and I also verified it, that page for the first time does take more time to load, compared to other pages, but no stop responding.

@Shyam-Gupta now that we have another repro this would be a good one to look into.

@merriemcgaw I captured PerfView traces and it appears that time is getting spent in following stack:

It doesn't appear to be in WinForms codebase.

I just stumbled upon this. It hangs for several minutes before eventually showing the list. A less patient user might easily conclude that it froze and kill the process.

I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2022 Version 17.8.3.
