6 years ago I reproduced this bug as well, I will push a fix for it next.
The responsiveness is linked to how many cached locations you have enabled. I recommend renaming/backing up the cache.json file in C:\Users\djehm\AppData\Roaming\NoMansConnect and running NMC with a clean location cache. For the install location, try pointing it to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky\.
The 3D map is more responsive, but I found its almost unusable if there's more than 8000 locations cached. Performance improvements are still a work in progress. The app has additional worker threads added several versions ago which definitely help with CPU bound operations, but there's a lot more that can be refactored.

If I have the app running for a half hour or more, gradually it becomes more and more responsive with items displaying close to but not as fast as previous versions. Restarting the application does not improve response time, makes it worse.
Not sure if I have a file which didn't get updated properly or not. But as a fail safe I did a full reinstall with the same results.
Also note, still getting issue with the log indicating the install location is not found. I've changed it twice from the explicit directory of Binaries, back to the generic No Man's Sky with same results. For versions up to 17, the Binaries directory was the default and no errors regarding the install path had been logged.
Regardless of the error message, locations are saving and teleport able, but not sure if the install error could also be causing the map update delay. (Note, the 3d map is actually more responsive)
