    --- This setting is used to prevent monopolization of the main thread when displaying large files.
    --- If the UI freezes, try reducing this value.
    async_chunksize = 50,
  },
  view = {
    --- minimum width of a column
    min_column_width = 5,
    --- spacing between columns
    spacing = 2,
  },
}
