Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.0.5

Python Version

3.12

Steps to Reproduce

Load a page with a large number of items, such as Tennants. in my case there are 88 items on the page

Expected Behavior

Page loads promptly and all Tennants show and can be scrolled.

Observed Behavior

On a browser such as Chrome, this works absolutely fine. On macOS Safari, the page takes time to load after first being clicked, then when the page displays, it will have a single page full of content, scrolling results in it freezing and no additional content being shown, just blank page. After a period of around 10 - 15 seconds, then the rest of the content loads.

This has been the same since V4.0 but was not an issue prior to update.

An otherwise empty instance with 100 Tenant objects in it rendered the full list in a sub-second timeframe.

Might there be an interaction with other objects in your system?

Converting to a discussion since an actual bug seems unlikely. If that road leads back to a likely bug, we'll regroup in issues.

BTW thanks for reporting a problem you're having with NetBox, we do appreciate it.
