Description
Add an MPA fallback for when SPA navigation is too slow. SPA needs to execute all the bundles to perform CSR. When there are above a 100 bundles this can take >10s. The idea is to fallback to MPA when this happens.
This will only fallback on first navigations if the bundles haven't been preloaded yet. If the bundles have been preloaded or cached by the browser (disk or memory cache), it will always be SPA.
This feature is on by default and can be turned off by the developer with
<Link fallbackToMpa={false}>. As explained in the code comments the threshold is not configurable yet. This depends on how well this feature is received in real projects, but also on what the threshold is based on: number of bundles needed to be preloaded for the next route, or the size of these bundles. In the future, we might be able to speed up SPA so much that falling back to MPA will never make sense.TODO
