fontawesome.com search page performance degredation

[6TELOIV]

I'm not sure when this happened, but I've noticed over the past month or so the load times for the search page on fontawesome.com feels exteremely poor. I think this conicided with Algolia search (I don't remember it saying algolia before).

Issues:

• Clicking into/out of search box takes a noticeable amount of time (~500ms I'd guess)
• Selecting filters has a similar delay
• Page jumps to top after modifying filters (this is particularly bad with the delay)

It seems like part of this is a precieved degredation in performance due to bad UX, which could be solved with loading states, optomistic updates, and scroll preservation (or removing a scrollIntoView call, if that's the cause). However, some of it may also be actual performance issues.

Separately, I'm not a huge fan of the new layout, where the icons are separated by family and also only ~10 are shown. I often need to compare outline/solid/sharp versions of one specific icon, and I would search the site, pick the families from the filters, and then compare. This layout is not as nice for that workflow, and i'm not sure what the intended user experience is now.

Additionally, when visiting the page it takes 1-2 seconds to even load in the search UI. I've also had the tab become unresponsive, specifically in Firefox.
