Bug Description

While the AJAX block-loading speeds up page loads if there are blocks that take a long time to render, it can actually slow down page load if you have many blocks that are quick to load, but you have a slow ping time to your Mahara site.

So, it will probably create the least user frustration if we turn off the AJAX block loading feature for all blocks except the ones that are quite prone to loading slowly (i.e. ones that are database-heavy.)
