Description

Dashboard generates many queries depending on amount of widgets. When search box is used, queries get more complicated and very slow. My initial idea is to use Rails cache to cache these, this will speed things up quite lot.

EDIT: I am turning this into disabling auto refresh for inactive tabs or minimized browsers since caching turned out not to be best idea.

Caching solution was not preferred by the community, I am leaving this to WebUI/JS team to at least prevent refreshing on inactive tab.
