[BUG] - Highlighting in data-browser causes performance issues

[JWittmeyer]

Describe the bug
When using the highlight function in the data browser the overall performance degrades. E.g. a modal that needs to be opened to save a filter takes 2-3 seconds.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to data browser
2. Add filter with highlighting (attribute filter)
3. try to open a modal
4. wait

Expected behavior
faster response time

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows
• Browser Chrome
• Version 1.6

Additional context
Looking into the dom tree shows that the constant redraw of the highlight module seems to be the culprit
