List container is being repainted each time an album is selected #2

Each time an album is selected, a call is made to https://photoslibrary.googleapis.com/v1/mediaItems:search, and then the list-container is repainted. With a lot of albums, this takes many seconds.

Yes. That is expected behavior. If your used to previous versions of the extension, it loaded all the photos for all the albums when you first displayed the list

So, the initial display of the list should be faster, but you pay the cost when you select the album.

There are now limits to the number of times the extension can call the API that interfaces with Google Photos, so I am trying to minimize then

I'm working on getting more quota with the folks at Google. In the mean time, if you could limit the number of albums and photos you select, I would appreciate it

Regards, Mike
