1. We still do the splitting, even when slicing with an out-of-order indexer. Checking on if that's appropriate.
2. I'm checking in on a logic bug when computing the number of chunks. I don't think we properly handle non-uniform chunking on the other axes.","{""total_count"": 2, ""+1"": 2, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,702646191

Here's a reproducer
``` python
import dask
import numpy as np
import xarray as xr
dask.config.set(
**{
""array.slicing.split_large_chunks"": True,
""array.chunk-size"": ""24 MiB"",
}
)
da = xr.DataArray(
dask.array.random.random((10, 1000, 2000), chunks=(-1, -1, 200)),
dims=[""x"", ""y"", ""time""],
coords={""x"": [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 8, 0, 2, 1]},
)
da
```


Which is basically
``` python
da.data[np.argsort(da.x.data), ...]
```

I don't understand why its rechunking when we are indexing with a list along a dimension with a single chunk...","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,702646191

So this can probably be closed, though there *may* be parts of xarray that should be updated to avoid creating large chunks, or we could rely on the user to do that through the dask config system.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,702646191

That change helps with cases like https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/4112
`sortby` is basically an `isel` indexing operation; so dask is automatically rechunking to make chunks with size < the default. You could fix this by setting an appropriate value in `array.chunk-size` either temporarily or permanently
``` python
with dask.config.set({""array.chunk-size"": ""256MiB""}): # or appropriate value
