Hello, the current o2m displaying the number "m" or related records in list
view also has a performance issue I think: it seems it makes 'm' requests to
name_get to the server to when counting the 'm' it will display (while it is
useless). For instance in the base_external_referentials modules we had to
drop the feature of displaying how many external mapping has each mapped
model because it was too slow, making hundreds of extra requests. I hope the
new system doesn't has this issue; sorry, so far I can't remember if that
was happening under the GTK or web client or both.
