As I said - selecting from an optionset with 22,400 values is VERY fast
(1-2 seconds), but you obviously need to know what sub-text to type in to
filter the list.

ICD-10 has at most around 70,000 codes, so it is possible using that many
will slow things down - I don't know.

Otherwise, we have already had some discussions around "hierarchical"
option sets (or grouped option values, if you prefer that term) as well as
the ability to automatically filter one option set based on the value in
another attribute/data element. Both would be useful for larger option
sets. (I'm not sure, but I think there are JIRA issues for both already?)

Regards
Calle
