Issues with adding and renaming columns

Are you using our SaaS platform (Baserow.io) or self-hosting Baserow?

Self-hosted

If you are self-hosting, what version of Baserow are you running?

1.31.1 - environment vars
BASEROW_ROW_PAGE_SIZE_LIMIT=“5000”
BATCH_ROWS_SIZE_LIMIT=“5000”

If you are self-hosting, which installation method do you use to run Baserow?

single image docker container

What are the exact steps to reproduce this issue?

not sure how to reproduce the issue - I have a large table imported from another instance, which started running very slow after import and it is not possible to add new columns from a view with some columns hidden. renaming is either impossible or takes very long time (60+ seconds) in all views.
logs show this:

Hi @dev-rd, could you please try exporting and re-importing the table, or alternatively importing it to Baserow.io, to see if the issue still occurs?

I will try to do that as soon as I have the time to prepare a share-able version of this table. Right now it is also way above the limits for the baserow.io account.

Okay, got you. Could you maybe share the exported file so we can import it and check if the issue persists?

as soon as I have a shareable version of the table (without sensitive info, etc)
