Decreased number of simultaneously retrieved posts

As per the suggestion in #1. Load times were indeed reduced
spectacularly.

There is one potential future problem with this. Since the average
number of requests per user per minute is increased by this, it is more
likely that praw will throttle reddit api requests down to 2 per second
if there are multiple concurrent users.

However, there are multiple mitigation strategies (dynamically increase
limit again if raw throttles, authenticate users with reddit to get more
requests, more caching, ...) and so I don't think we need to worry about
it until it happens.
