Regression
No
Editor becomes unresponsive and performance is continually degraded when selecting a Scriptable Object with a large dataset
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project ("ScriptableObjectLargeDataset")
2. Select "Assets/data.asset"
Expected results: Inspector displays the view of the asset immediately and editor performance is unaffected
Actual result: Editor becomes unresponsive, the inspector then displays but editor performance is degraded
Reproducible with: 2018.4.32f1, 2019.4.20f1, 2020.2.3f1, 2021.1.0b5, 2021.2.0a4

Latest issues
- Unity Cloud icon does not appear next to project and does not connect correctly when the project is created with Cloud but closed right after creation
- ScrollerSlider in the Scroller Control is still using UXMLTraits
- Crash on ExtractHandles when shutting down the Editor in a specific scene while Burst jobs are in progress
- Unity Hub closes with no "Project is currently open" window when selecting an already open project from the Projects list
- The Hub freezes indefinitely when copy/pasting a lot of characters in the “Set project display name” Hub window since it has no character limit
Resolution Note:
It's by design that the Editor is unresponsive when a Scriptable Object has a very large string. String requires lots of extra-processing. A byte array is blittable and therefore much faster. The recommendation would be to use a different ScriptableObject for storage than the one for editing.
