Description

I used the API to update node properties on all nodes, so it triggered about 3500 policy generations requests.

Each of those reseted the state of the turning wheel (saying that the policy generation was starting), and browser got nealy ususable after a while.

This bug is not specific to 7.0 and will likely need an architecture change.

Possible workaround to try:

- try to use `rudder_generation_delay` settings to delay generation and avoid the behavior
- try to use group node properties to avoid having to change properties on node
