Improve performance for fetching active branches and prebuilds #5038

Open gtsiolis opened 3 years ago

gtsiolis commented 3 years ago

Problem to solve

Back in https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/pull/4970 we added Branches and Prebuilds pages for Projects.

However, these pages fetch a great amount data from third party providers which adds a noticeable delay during page load.

Proposal

One improvement could be to add a loading state for fetching active branches and prebuilds.

Ideally, we could introduce some mechanisms to make this loading faster, like caching. Looping in @AlexTugarev because of the relevant discussion (internal).
