Default number of lines to display (500)

[aliakseiTraihel]

(To discuss) May I once again rise the question why the default page size is 500? This number is weird. This number cannot guarantee that all the entries will fit in one page. Because if there are 501 entries, we have two pages anyway.

At the same time, there is not a display in the whole world that would display 500 lines at once. So we are absolutely sure, that the page load will be as long as to load 500 entries, but yet, there will be other pages, and still, a user will absolutely need to scroll with their mouse to the end of the page.

So the number 500 does not make the browser happy (it needs to load more in memory),
and it does not make a user happy (they still need to scroll down).

So what's the point in 500?) It could be kind of 50. A page would load faster at least == at least one goal would be reached.
