Consider adding a note that box filters will be faster than polygon filters

[andrewharvey]

What feature would you like to see added?

When a user is creating a new filter, they have the option of a Box or Polygon

I'm not sure if it was just for me, but I found that using an arbitrary polygon meant that requests for the list of changesets took any where from a few seconds to 1.4 minutes, however when I set a filter using a rectangular box the changesets load in under a second.

Until/unless the performance of the Polygon option can be improved, we should at least add a note here to users that using a Box will be much faster than a Polygon, so they can make the best decision.

Why would this be useful to you or other users?

see above.
