Discussions are getting slower to render as they grow. It’s a rendering issue (not a db issue).

I could use ActionController::Live to stream top-level ideas to the page one by one. Instant page load.

cmd + f won’t work reliably.

Now that parts of the page are purposely and visually disabled (see #2694), users may not expect everything to be working 100% during a loading state.

This problem will surface rarely – users would have to hit cmd + f immediately upon opening the page. For most users, by the time they start typing, the page is already fully loaded. So this seems like a small price to pay in exchange for discussion pages that always render faster.
