Site archive response slows considerably after scrolling through several days

I use the archive feature.  When first accessing the latest day, there is a crisp, quick response; pictures and gif's fill quickly.  After scrolling down through, say, five or six days, the response time gets slower and slower to the point where the screen is virtually empty, then may take minutes to fill each square. It starts to look like this and takes long time to fill.  I use the Chrome browser, Windows 10.  This problem is common to several different blogs. Thanks for help.

  Greetings!

  In the future, please contact us by sending a support ticket if there's an issue with the site, that's meant for support with problems. Thanks :).

   

  But about the issue at hand:

  There's unfortunately not much what can be done, it's due to device's processing power and bandwidth of your connection you're using (infinite scroll will load tons of images and if there's lots of gifs it's quickly huge amount of data it has to load, but if the loading is not finished yet next page is scrolled, that amount just increases even if the previous ones are not loaded). You can switch to paginated (per page) view via your settings so you can browse them per page which gets rid of this problem.

  Thanks. I have returned to the pagination method and it is much better alternative for me.  Those long waits are no longer a problem, and actually it helps to have the material in batches (so to speak) rather than the continuous scroll.  Great site, keep up the good work!
