My third client was a SPA breaking down from its usage of redux. They would pull chunks search results from the backend in a loop (and this could be many hundred chunks of 100 objects each), indexing them in their reducers causing heavy rerenders. But they "needed" to do that in order to build their filters. All in the frontend. The machine (2019 MacBook Pro 13) would go full CPU load.
So yeah it happens.
Their old server side solution was near instant.
Definitely the design flaw was to index it in the frontend in the first place instead of preparing that data somewhere in between to easily be consumed by the client but still draws the picture of how many people approach SPAs these days.
