Hi,
I have a form with the following construction:
General Questions
Thirty fields to set the properties of where observations are made
Then a repeat group
selection of a plant
twenty questions related to the observation of the plant
+
widget location map
(no photo or other media)
no parallel csv file to fill a select,
but 2 long select present in the xml of the form (360 municipalities, 240 plants)
when I arrive around 50 and 70 points,
there is a slowdown in the fluidity of ODKcollect in general,
and significantly on the map widget which takes time to signal
(I remove the link with a network problem, GPS sensor and 4G data were ok on the smartphone at the time of the slowdown)
I save after each group via the floppy disk button.
To regain the fluidity of the start, I have to finalize the form, reopen it and go to the end to continue it.
There it is ok for 50s more points with a fluid entry.
One of my colleagues went up to 1200 observations on a same form, so it's possible to go far this way.
Is it a capacity limit by the application which in this specific case consumes too many resources? I think it's a form caching issue.
Is it my form that has a bad design?
I'm using ODK Collect v2022.3.6
The problem appears on all my device.

Thank you for enlightening me on this point, or for your feedback on big form use.
