I tested a 500 element playlist with the latest version of the addon and Kodi DB change checking enabled. It took 9 seconds. Which version of the addon are you using ? If it is one of the more recent versions I have posted, which features are enabled in the Content Control tab ? If you are using a newer version and Kodi DB change detection is enabled, try disabling it and see what the timing difference is. If you are running a later version and disabling it makes a big difference then please look in your Kodi.log file after browsing a slow playlist with it change detection enabled and see if you see a lot of messages like these:
2020-05-21 13:47:53.602 T:25504 NOTICE: There was a Mezzmo streamdetails or artwork change detected: Desert Heat
2020-05-21 13:47:53.648 T:25504 NOTICE: There was a Mezzmo metadata change detected: Hard Target
2020-05-21 13:47:53.694 T:25504 NOTICE: There was a Mezzmo streamdetails or artwork change detected: Hard Target
This would indicate the Kodi DB is being written to and will slow down processing playlists waiting for the database writes to complete. If you see the same names in log messages consistently then you have movies with the exact same name and change detection is updating the Kodi DB each time it see the duplicate named movie.
