For the upcoming unstructured sprint on iOS or perhaps later on, would it make sense to explore reinstating the loading of the first section of an article in one request, followed by loading of the others?
I've heard that the payload for the upcoming mobile app content service is pretty dramatically reduced, although that's down the road for full productionization. I'm wondering if on this single payload for the new content service for relatively larger articles the time to interact for the iOS user would approach the incredibly fast time-to-interact that's present on Android as a consequence of its two-step loading mechanism. For some historical context, there was two-step loading on iOS, but eventually things became crashy, so it was revised to be a one-step action=mobileview call. -Adam
