Create a gui with the choose-elem-button type = entities

I was doing this while holding a setup blueprint in my cursor.

[EDIT] Also just realized I have the data-raw-prototypes mod installed also

Click on the "unsorted" tab
All kinds of stuff shows up and hovering over anything slows the game down.

Possible solution is for it to only list player placeable entities.

That's the result of adding thousands of entities to do something never intended

Don't use that mod and you won't have that problem. The GUi is working as intended and showing everything it should simply the mod uses a bunch of hacks that it shouldn't be doing in the first place.
