Expected Behavior

markdown-attributres plugin should not have side effects on dataview's rendering performance.

Current behaviour

Rendering any dataview table with dv.view() had recently become quite slow on my Obsidian Windows installation. A couple of tables with slightly over 70 results took over 30 seconds to load.

The Performance profile indicated that the recent dataview performance hit might be related to the installation of the Markdown Attributes plugin. Once I disabled this plugin, dataview rendering became again near instantenous. Below a screenshot of the performance profile.

Reproduction

• Install javalent plugin
• Install dataview plugin
• Create a dataview query using dv.view() that will result in loading a significant number (+50) of records with a few data columns
• Execute the query
• Observer the table rendering performance with the markdown-attirubes plugin disabled
• Observer the table rendering performance with the markdown-attirubes plugin enabled

I can confirm this. Tasks (which uses Dataview) has a similar slowdown. There's some kind of interaction that appears to be causing the issue. I have not dug in (for reasons stated below).

I am commenting to both confirm this bug and to point out that Dataview is nearing the end of a complete rewrite and rearchitecture that may address the issue.
