Increase initial conference list from 150 to 600 #430

It should be fine, my only worry is for google crawlers. I don’t know how much they wait for JS to load. |

Actually, thinking about it more, it would still increase the load time by 4 (thinking about slow connexions / 3G). I think we should rather implement an auto load or stylé the button to be more visible. |

I'm fine with either solution. I've also optimised the Algolia search result and it now only includes the properties which are displayed on the website. The load time wouldn't increase by 4. The page currently loads ~284KB. The Algolia query results is 17KB large. The optimised JSON with all conferences is now 56KB large. So instead of 5% of the loaded resources it would be 19%. At least for a cold cache. The size of the json could be reduced by another 1/3 by removing the

Oh I see. Thanks for the details Christian! |
I would like to increase the amount of conferences which are initially loaded from 150 to 600. Currently you can just see conferences for the next 2 months. The load more button is also not very large and the page doesn't load more conferences when you hit the bottom of the page.
I think increasing the initial load would be an acceptable quick fix. The payload from Algolia would be about 100KB (currently the payload is about 25KB). That shouldn't impact the performance too much. Most of the content Algolia sends is nevertheless not used.
