Description
I discovered after importing my very large, pre-existing photo library and then trying to create some albums that very large collections will run into limitations in the browser. The first limitation is not terrible but I didn't see it documented: selecting multiple images is limited to 500. The second limitation was much more difficult to work within: I was unable to scroll past 2,222 photos in a single view (using mosaic view). This doesn't take into account the performance hit I saw while browsing and selecting, which I see is already reported in #477.
My entire photo library is around 15,000+ photographs and I presume without being able to move photos out of the primary view, it's not hard to get past that 2,222 image limit. Attempting to create an album for photographs from my wedding, for example (for which I have nearly 1,200 photographs alone in various color palettes and from various sources) became an exercise in finding limiting views to select the photos I wanted, sorting forward and then reverse for the month in question, etc.
Perhaps instead of a hard limit on the number of photos to load, the limit can be a rolling number, and as the limit is reached via the infinite scrolling, the previous ones are kicked out of cached memory. The process would then be reversed for scrolling in the opposite direction.
Thank you for this incredible software, both the web app and the Android mobile applications are far superior to anything else I've tried!
