Bug description

If you have many sticker packs, usually animated, installed, and then scroll through the list of them in a chat, they start consuming a lot of memory, which isn't a problem but then it also slows down the entire phone OS, along with Signal itself. And it remains this way until Signal is forcefully closed.

Hi there! Could you please share a few more details such as:

1. How many sticker packs do you have?
2. How long does it take before you start observing the lag/slowdown?
3. Do you have any steps we can follow to reproduce the issue?
4. If you could also share some logs while reproducing the issue, that would be helpful.

1. I have 41 sticker packs, roughly 30 are animated
2. Scrolling through maybe 10 or so slows down the app a bit but then it starts compounding heavily after that
3. Open the sticker selector in a chat, that shows all the stickers to select. Scroll from top to bottom at any pace.
4. I'll get back to you on this one
