Issue xlet-settings consumes high amount of CPU and heavily sputters and freezes while attempting to scroll through icons in the menu dialog -> icons. After some amount of time the CPU load decreases and the dialog becomes responsive which suggests some sort of caching or list is being created.

Steps to reproduce Install papirus-dark icon theme. Right click Menu -> Configure -> icon. The icon dialog pops up and select applications from the left pane. Attempt to scroll through the icons.

Expected behaviour For the dialog to scroll seamlessly and not consume high amounts of CPU.

Some apps that use XApp Status Applet don't use the icons from themes such as Papirus[-Dark] in my case. Firewall-Applet, Calibre (Flatpak), etc...
