Description
Using the standard renderer for the Components picker in JIRA 4.2+, if you have a project with a very large amount of components, it can take an excruciatingly long time to load. This can be long enough for IE8 can time out whilst waiting for the component list to load.
Currently we can work around these issues by either pruning the number of components available, or by starting to type the component name in the box right away, before the down arrow is clicked, as this will only load a subset of those components.
However we should look at a way to make this field scale better when used with large instances, or instances with a large number of components, if possible.
