Could you share your blueprint file please?
Hi, @afbora, can't do it today, but I will as soon as possible. Thank you!
Hi, sorry for the delay, here is a blueprint for testing. It is a block blueprint, just add it as a new block in your blocks. It is a simplified slider block, where the structure field has options for one image, a blocks field for content, and a few options fields.

HOW TO TEST:
NOTE I think that the blocks field inside structure field is making the biggest slowdown. A structure field in a block that have Kirby markdown instead of blocks field is a lot faster. It slows down too, but not that much.
I checked. Yes, we are experiencing the same problem in our own themes (especially in nested blocks).
There's a ticket/issue for this that we're tracking in the backlog. In fact, even PR (https://github.com/getkirby/kirby/pull/3623) work was done on this issue. It has not merged, but we are aware of the problem. I can't say for sure when it will be resolved. It requires many parts to be refactored.
That's good news. The solution starts when we are all aware of the problem. Thank you!
(Adding to this issue per @afbora request)
Better loading feedback Panel users are sometimes left in an unknown state, not aware the panel is currently working in the background. This happens when user adds a new item, saves an edit or paginates between items.
Expected behavior Visual feedback in relation to where the user is working. Disable fields and show a spinner? Dim fields and show a spinner on top? Spinner on button/pagination?
Hi, structure field is great field, and very usable for many situations, but it is by far the slowest field. If there are several structure fileds in the panel page, it becomes very slow. It loads very slow, and it saves changes even slower.
It is easy to reproduce with two approaches:
It works slow in every Kirby 3+ version. If there is any option to improve performance of that field it will be super welcomed.
