Comment (by westonruter):

 The [https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-widgets-plus/blob/master/php
 /class-optimized-widget-registration.php Customize Widgets Plus] plugin
 has a module “[https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-widgets-
 plus/blob/master/php/class-optimized-widget-registration.php Optimized
 Widget Registration]” which limits the number of widgets registered to the
 current request. More work would need to be done here for widgets in the
 Customizer, specifically on implementing including lazy-loading widgets
 that are present in the preview (#28580) and implementing JS-driven
 widgets (#33507).
