Can't really provide my own code, but I will say ng-repeat is heavy and resource intensive, because of the way it handles updates on digest, even though it checks for existing versions with a deep watch, and you probably want to implement pagination (see http://tech.small-improvements.com/2013/09/10/angularjs-perf...) or use something like quick-ng-repeat, possibly with server side rendering for the initial page to take advantage of server caching.
