@matbrady @danielboggs Any recommendations here? We do still need to add the loading states #70 #42 which I think will help but can we also do anything to decrease load times?

danielboggs commented 3 years ago

@lizzycederberg @matbrady I have added the page loading animations across the site. These loading times are not related to server capacity. Since we are code splitting the JavaScript bundles for the various top level sections of the site, as the user navigates to different sections the browser has to download and process these bundles which contain all of the record data used within the given section. Once a user has navigated to a given section they will never incur a loading animation for that same section of the site again unless an update to the application is deployed.

I'm going to share this update with NARA and see how they feel
