Hi Jan,

Too slow. Most users will run away, before the page shows up. This is not 
how websites are done today. This is not even how websites have been build 
two years ago. The real problem is, that you want to shift the searching 
from you to the users, presenting 99% of irrelevant information and 
resulting in a bad user experience.

Load information on the fly (JavaScript) and let the users drill down the 
search before outputting so much (irrelevant) information.

The brain cannot cope with more than about seven options. We cannot even use 
more than 10-30 records of information at once. This is why Google does not 
display more than 10 results in one page. People cannot perceive more 
information.

Did you ever tried to load this page on a smartphone?

Of course you got your problem solved and I understand that you might want 
to move on to work on other problems, but maybe you take five minutes and 
think about how you can assists your users to gather the knowledge they want 
and need, what is really important for them and how you can avoid irrelevant 
data that is both using up system resources and user satisfaction.

Best regards
