Table: Multiple selection with CTRL and mouse click in a table with with Editable cells lagging if a large number of rows and column are present

[fraras]

Describe the bug

When the user tries to select multiple columns with the CTRL Key and the mouse click the application starts to lag and freezes for several seconds (with more columns the freeze time is longer) This doesn't happen in those cases:

• If the user selects rows using only the keyboard (both shift key or CTRL)
• if the metaKeySelection is set to false (selecting multiple rows with the simple click of the mouse)

I noticed that if I select only using the keyboard with ctrl and enter and then I continue usining ctrl + left mouse click the table is behaving normally without any lags until I release and press again the ctrl key
