I work for Cake Wallet and Monero.com so I'm biased, but you should try one of the wallets that does this relatively burdensome scanning task locally to see that normally it's not the end of the world. It takes me only a few seconds to scan a month of blocks.

How many transactions is that, however?

About 25,000 transactions per day right now. So about 750,000 per month.
