File listing regression in 2.3.6/2.3.7: Error when loading the folder

[thegarbz]

I upgraded from 2.2.x recently and noticed a problem which I then hunted down by downgrading until the issue stopped. It seems between 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 something has changed which has caused problems with displaying libraries, and traversing folders.

Expected behaviour: v2.3.5
Issue 1) Main libraries view sorted by most recent date. Libraries are shown with the most recent modification at the top.
Issue 2) Traversing folders: fast and snappy even for folders with large numbers of files.
Issue 3) (Related to Issue 2) Traversing large folder: fast and snappy.

Actual behaviour: v.2.3.6/v2.3.7
Issue 1) Main libraries ignore sorting by more recent date. Sorting is set, and the dates are correctly shown, but the sorting seems completely random.
Issue 2) Traversing folders: this seems to be highly dependent on the folder size. Small folders are okayish - still slower than 2.3.5. Large folders are painfully slow. It takes upwards of 20 seconds to display the folder contents of 5954 image files. On 2.3.5 this was <2seconds.
Issue 3) Traversing large folder: It appears to load for 30+ seconds and then briefly flashes the contents before display an error: "Error when loading the folder. Tap to retry". The working (but slow folder) has 5954 images in it. The next size up I have is 8236 images and this one fails with the error.

Im getting "error when loading libraries", but i suspect its similar issue, since downgrading app to 2.3.5 fixes it, Its old self hosted seafile server (dont know version right now), that needs an update, but still...

I am also getting "Error when loading libraries" on seadroid 2.3.6. Can create a library but not see it. Downgrading to 2.3.5 fixes it. Seafile server version is 5.0.3. (Server is stuck at that version due to OS and hardware constraints. I mean, c'mon, it's only 9 years out of date!)

Came here to confirm the "error when loading libraries" error. Tried on 2.3.6 and 2.3.7. Rolling back to 2.3.5 let the libraries load.
