So it is more bandwidth efficient to load 30 small pages than to load say 10 smaller pages?

Probably not, but the bandwidth savings come from the users who will continue to access the same number of pages as before - for example, those who only read one page of a giveaway's comments, those only accessing the front page en route to another page, or those who are searching for a game rather than browsing the entire giveaway list - as these same pages will be smaller. However, those who browse the entire giveaway list will now be using more bandwidth, so whether that in particular is a saving depends on what percentage of users do that.

The light graph represents a normal day, and the dark graph inside of it represents today. The changes were made just before 4:00am. If you look at the graph, you can see that's where they start to break off, and throughout the past 8 hours, it's remained quite lower.

That is quite cool. I wasn't saying you were wrong or anything, I've just never considered which would be more efficient :)

I actually think it's a good change. Often when trying to load a new page with endless scrolling my browser hangs for a time and it hangs less now.
Now if I was still on the secondary POS computer that can't seem to use steamgifts plus, I'd be hating it. Maybe as a suggestion there could be an option people can set for the number of giveaways that load on a page so people can set what suits them best? Also if you want to conserve bandwidth, maybe have the home page by default show highlights. Put giveaways in its own section and have the homepage be what it is now without the giveaways, so featured giveaway, recent winners, new from the forums, etc.

I hate scrolling, so, as I put on all your giveaways, thanks cg!

Until the end of the month, the homepage will be showing less results per page (20 instead of 50), and giveaways will be displaying fewer comments per page (15 instead of 40). For further information, please click here.
Edit: Resolved.
