Careful. Serious performance implications, as page load time rises basically linearly with the number of posts.
Yeah, page load time tends to be based on the number of things on the page. Not really much we can do about that unless we can process each item faster than constant time.
So the tradeoff is, less chunking but slower load time for everyone on all topics, all the time. Can't say I'm a fan, but try it out and you decide.
I'd prefer a 5 minute video buffering for a minute before it plays over stopping every 5 seconds to try to catch up. Community Server had 50 items per page, so we're used to being able to scroll through 50 posts before having to load more. Now we can do that here, too!
