I've prepared a pull request:
https://github.com/GNOME/devhelp/pull/2
Unfortunately, it's not so easy to build the devhelp with docset support yet.

- It could be im
I've spent some time profiling and it looks like the issue cause is not
the docsets model construction but the tree widget rendering (I can't
say for sure without debug symbols). So I suppose I'll limit the tree
