This is admittedly nit-picky, but you're not managing 60k DOM nodes if you're using a virtual list, that's the whole point of virtualization. You might have 60k items in your list but you're only ever rendering a tiny subset of those items based on what is visible (with some overlap).

It's not virtualized. It's not even a list. It's a very large SVG with lots of foreignObject bits in it. The app is a diagramming tool - imagine Visio but for lawyers to map out contracts and ownerships between hundreds of corporations.

Sorry, someone else mentioned a virtual list component and I assumed it was you without looking at the username.

That's pretty impressive, I've run into perf issues with far fewer actual DOM nodes than that!

You might get better performance with the <canvas> element instead of SVG. I've noticed React can struggle with SVGs containing complex subtrees.
