Global path filter to increase performance, especially on mobile

[kometenstaub]

Currently, "the [path] filter [in the codeblocks] filters the tasks after the plugin looked for tasks in the entire vault."

I would like to limit the plugin to certain paths for performance reasons because it takes a couple of seconds on mobile to query my whole vault.

In my experience the performance cost of searches isn't the actual searching, but the display of large numbers of tasks (many hundreds). This is fixed by using limit 300 or similar, and sorting the tasks so the most interesting ones are at the top.

However, #1619 proposes a mechanism where you could add any number of filters to a global instructions block, which would enable you to do what you wish.

So I will close this.
