Dashboards & Visualizations

How can I delay searches based on dropdown selection?

I have a classic dashboard that has 8 separate 'pages' controlled by a dropdown selection. I just added drilldowns to almost every visualization and have around 60 searches in the dashboard and it's starting to get laggy.

Is there a way to only execute searches on the page when I select it, instead of all at once?

Have the dropdown set a token that is referenced in the related search(es).  The searches won't until the token is set.
