[program-l] Silly question - which browser/format would you recommend for reading/scanning a ratehr over-populated webpage

FWIW, the page am talking about is the following one, which I need to review content of to implement credit-card/subscription payment processing, and, while the content makes enough sense most of the time, the issue seems to just be that they've included literally every single aspect of the API in one page, with, for example, NVDA's element listing dialogue telling me there are something like 326 headings on the page, to give you an idea, and, main issue is just that this seems to then be overloading NVDA's virtual buffering in terms of things like same-page navigation, etc. etc.:

https://stripe.com/docs/api?lang=php


And, that's working in either live/online mode, or with an offline copy of the page, and, I've tried it in chrome, brave, opera, firefox, waterfox, and, even webIE, in case one of them could handle it a bit better.


Now, I realise that I may just be being a bit hasty/in a hurry, but it irritates me trying to look up aspects of the API, and, the screenreader seeming to lose focus, get confused, etc. etc. at times...LOL!


So, since they don't seem to offer alternative formats of documentation that would necessarily be of much use, or accessible to me, was just wondering if you guys might have a suggestion with regards to what I could try make use of in terms of an interface to this content?


And, yes, just in case, I tried out the same page with jaws 2019 in 40-minute demo mode, and, FWIW, it actually seemed to lag even longer, so, think it just has to do with too much content, nested on too many levels, in one page. And, I did try running the offline version of the page through html tidy, just in case, but, didn't seem to make much of a difference either - reported 653 warnings, but, no markup errors, and, didn't boost content interpretation performance either.


TIA
