I have done some limited testing and noticed a major difference when I select to "select value as" and specify list vs. using a predefined list of elements and selecting an action that gets the same list. In my case I am trying to select a VM. When I specify to select values as list I noticed that the list is empty when it first comes up and you either have to press a space or something in the filter box to find the system you are looking for. I thought I might be able to fix this by using a predefined list of elements and linking it to the action getAllVMs. When I do this it take a long time for my presentation to even come up and when I go to select a VM I am not even presented a list view. It presents a tree. I think I must be at the limit of the array however I am not sure what that limit is. I also prefer to use the list format vs the other options. Any suggestions for best practices when displaying and searching large lists?
