You can also make a mess of server side nav. Just take a look at PyTorch documentation: 2.5MB of shit loaded in 26s. At least 10 fonts, 300KB of CSS and 455KB of JS. What I hate most about it is that the 'in page search' function doesn't work for many seconds after the page starts showing, and it's the only way to navigate such a long-ass page. Even with such a huge page most functions have no example of usage, it was better with the TurboPascal 7 help in the MS-DOS days.

Apparently I am not the only one who noticed this bad behaviour:

And the rustdoc for Iterator [0] (everything else is great, though).

As of the next release, it will be a lot better!
