The reason is that Qt may slow down item sorting in the list and compact modes when the number of items is huge and scrolling is done per pixel (smooth scrolling itself isn't the cause of slowdown; see lxqt/libfm-qt#739 (comment)). As a workaround, the user can disable per-pixel scrolling by disabling smooth scrolling in those modes, although that isn't needed in most use cases.
