Testing with ~ 200 files in main browser.
Main xhr request took 10s to return all files!
That is unacceptable!

This commit boosts browse request by 50%.
From 7s -> 3.5s.

Performance penalty comes from large number of request.user.has_perm(node, perm) calls .

Yey! managed to lower GET /browse/ request time to ~ 1.9s. It is still lot of time for only 200 files.... 👎 still, is some progress...

Now I understand why redis is so popular !

Ok, lowered it down to 1s. For total of 200 files in directory, 1s request is OK. Not perfect, but acceptable.
