Weird behavior I just discovered that's been bugging me for some time now. I have folders with hundreds of images that I add files to regularly and one issue grew increasingly evident – as I open those folders there's around 1 second time when images arranged in completely wrong order and only then they reorder to correct one, mildly annoying issue slowing down overall workflow.
And just now I've found in sorting options "More>Date modified" that doesn't have this issue, folder opens instantly in correct order.
Exploring other options like "Date taken" or "Dimensions" where that 1 second issue also present hints to me that explorer, probably, has to query every single image for metadata and for some reason no clever caching happening in that moment. And so main option "Date" probably does some weird combination of "Date modified", "Date created" and "Date taken" which is why it takes so much time to load
One downside of "Date created", though, is that folders don't show up before files anymore
