Re: Opinion on how to reduce percived page loading time
Reply #15 –
The pages are the obvious trick ones: unread replies and unread mainly.
Yes, that could be a good option. And expanding a bit, the slowest query is always only the COUNT used to build the pagination, so it could even be better to just throw out the page with a very simple pagination (prev/next and nothing else) and then replace it with the proper pagination via AJAX when ready (i.e. on the callback).
I wonder if it may be helpful for Elk too (at some point probably).
