MSF Instrument Browser is Super Slow

Is anyone else experiencing a really slow instrument (device) browser in MSF? Specifically, changing the folder in the tree view on the left takes multiple seconds.
I thought this was because I'm using Linux and the compatibility layer was slow, but it turns out the issue goes away when I load MSF inside MXXX.
Edit: I've done some more testing and it looks like it updates immediately when I resize the window after I've clicked on a new folder. So maybe there's an issue with refreshing the window after loading the new folder.
Edit2: Turns out the problem goes away if you disable 'Graphics accelaration' in the settings. I'm using an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050 Ti
@Vojtech I know Linux isn't officially supported, but I would really appreciate if you could take a look to see what might be the cause of the slow down in the standalone version.

Okay thanks. I'm always torn between reporting an issue because I can never know if it's because of Linux or if it's a real bug.

I also use Melda plugins on Linux. AVLinux MXE and Yabridge / Wine. Harrison Mixbus 32C. Work pretty well. MSoundfacroty may cause a crash. So is Mdrummer. Still works surprisingly well. But a native Linux version would be best solution. I also use these on the Windows 10 side and work well. MCompleteBundle happy user. So more attention in the direction of Linux Please

Everything works like on the Windows side, but every now and then it might crash Mixbus. i can load devices normally and use it yes.
It would be wonderful if they could make native Linux versions.

I'm afraid no can do. I don't even have Linux here and honestly simulating everything that is happening on unsupported platform like this with all the stuff around it is pretty much impossible. Sorry.
