List slow to render after clearing text for list of 200 items

As a test I increased your sample Emails data to 200 items. When I text some text it filters quick enough, but when I clear it using the backspace on the phone's keyboard it takes a long time.

Is this more of a react native issue? Can it handle 200 items?

Not sure though. I haven't done performance testing for this project yet. I'm looking to this repository for hints on how to improve this search component for react native.

Yes it filters items very slow. Usually takes 2-3 seconds to filter on 200-400 array list
