Performance Issue with wp_dropdown_users()

Just a heads up: Our site has over 600,000 users in Wordpress. When creating a new form in GF, the form_detail.php makes use of the wp_dropdown_users() function to populate the 'Default Post Author' field. As a result, it attempts to load all 600+k users into the field.

This causes a massive load time and occasionally the page just craps out and won't load at all. When I commented out the use of wp_dropdown_users() in form_detail.php, everything loaded fine.

This temporary solution will hold us over, but it'd be great if you could take this issue into consideration in future releases.

Thanks!

Alright, the filter worked nicely. Here is what I did:

function inet_limit_author_dropdown($args) {
    $args['who'] = 'authors';
    return $args;
}
add_filter('gform_author_dropdown_args', 'inet_limit_author_dropdown');

This limits the the drop down to only "authors" instead of all users.
