The performance of the selectAll and selectRange methods of the MultiSelectionModel class has been greatly improved. This greatly improves the response when selecting multiple items in ListView and TableView. However, in TreeView / TreeTableView, the improvement effect is hidden mainly due to the design problem of the cache of TreeUtil.getTreeItem (). Reference value of the number of data that can be handled within 3 seconds of processing time (before-> after) ListView * selectAll: 400_000-> 10_000_000 * selectRange: 7_000-> 70_000 TableView * selectAll: 8_000-> 700_000 * selectRange: 7_000-> 50_000 You can see performance improvements in the following applications: SelectListViewTest.java import javafx.application.Application;
