We have been running in to the problem in https://github.com/pallets/flask-sqlalchemy/issues/518 where our page loads very slow when viewing a single page of notifications for a service in the admin app. Tracing this back and using SQL explain analyze I can see that getting the notifications takes about a second but the second query to count how many notifications there are (to work out if there is a next page of pagination) can take up to 100 seconds. As suggested in that issue, we do the pagination ourselves. Our pagination doesn't need us to know exactly how many notifications there are, just whether there are any on the next page and that can be done without running the slow query to count how many notifications in total by using `count_pages=False`.
