Nuxt.com loads immense amounts of JSON #1538

Open

Description

Problem

Two of the API requests, /search and /contributors, load around 16 MB of JSON in total. It may slow down the performance of the page

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open Network tab
  2. Set Fetch/XHR filter
  3. Set "disable cache"
  4. Navigate to https://nuxt.com/
  5. Sort by request size

Actual result

https://nuxt.com/api/search.json endpoint returns 515 KB/12.5 MB compressed/uncompressed JSON data. It is not inspectable, Chrome refuses to show Response due to its size

https://api.nuxt.com/contributors returns 375 KB/ 3.7 MB compressed/uncompressed JSON data.
Result contains array of 22787 values. My guess this can be limited to 1000 at most,
Current grid of supporters on page shows 20 faces every 5 seconds. 1000 should suffice for 4 minutes spent on page.

Expected result

Only necessary data is sent to the page
