There are at least two bug reports, you may find many more.
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61558
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38295

If those don't fit just file another issue.

To my knowledge there is no good workaround. You could try the Navigator which has a section for 
comments.

I'm an author. I've been using LO for a very long time. However,
recently I changed editors to one who does all of her editing within
comments. Yesterday I opened the file she'd just edited, to find it
unusable. Trying to scroll through the document was painfully slow. I
saved the file to .docx format, opened in Apple Pages, and it had no
problems.

I did a bit of searching to find this a common issue with LO (documents
with hundreds or thousands of comments becoming unusable). Thing is, I
could not find a work-around. Is this going to be the deal breaker, or
is there a solution for this issue?

Thank you so much for any input anyone might have.

Well, if you have very long document, you should consider using Master
Document where you write every chapter in separate document and Master
Document acts as container. You don't edit Master Document, you just
print it.

Having long text splitted in smaller chunks may help you with the
problem. Just remember to send all chapters (as separate documents) to
your editor.

Consult documentation about this.

Kruno, thank you for your input. Unfortunately, that isn't really an
option. Any editor I've worked with would lose their minds having to
manage a separate document for each chapter. On top of that, considering
neither Apple Pages or MS Office has no problem with this, I'd like to
think the LO developers could resolve such an issue. A work around for a
long document with comments shouldn't be necessary.
