Thank you so much for the detailed report, and the suggestion! Thanks also to another user who emailed me off-list to give me a detailed report of the problem in multiple browsers. I've updated https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3454#issuecomment-377207553 accordingly.

I appreciate you sharing your assessment. Thank you. I've filed https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3463 where I suggest we provide a widget on search results pages that allows the user to change the detault number of results in result pagination, e.g., "10 [default]/25/50/100/all". If that wouldn't address your concern, please let me know, here, via email, or on GitHub.
