Can barely... load... database...

Seriously, it takes me a good 2~3 minutes to load the entire database, and then another 30+ seconds inbetween each movement and/or type of resource lookup (checking the box... waiting 30 seconds... and then it removes them/adds them to the map!).

Perhaps look at now sorting it into a bunch of mini-databases, such as:

Ore
Enmat

And then sub-divide into: (in order of size )

Amethera
Eudoria
CND

Yes, I can see this being very complex and annoying, having to download multiple databases (looking at at least 6 to download) but IMO, that would be a HELLUVA lot better than having a 50k+ claim map for Amethera which chokes even a high-end machine. (also easier for those specific miners {I'm only an ore/enmat miner, I'm only doing Amethera/CND/Eudoria, no need for the other databases, etc})

p.s. - can you also have a feature where it automatically saves all database "dots (radius)" at around 20m size? It's a bit annoying to have every size from 1m to 50m lol.
