API calls & fetching data
Unless expanded, the tool is not doing any API calls. Only when the user expands the slider, it fetches data about revisions (revision-id, timestamp, user, comment, size and flags). The tool only fetches data for revisions that are currently visible on the screen (maximum 500 revisions) and data about additional revisions is only loaded when the user navigates back or forth on the timeline using the arrows.
