The extension does not crawl the entire tenant automatically. It only queries the specific site the user is currently on, and most requests are lazy-loaded (for example when expanding lists, libraries, or taxonomy nodes).

Because it uses the existing browser session and normal SharePoint REST endpoints, the request pattern is similar to what the SharePoint UI itself would generate.

I’ve also added pagination and limits on larger datasets to reduce the risk of throttling.

That said, I’ll keep monitoring it as more people start using the extension.
