Bug Description
To reproduce:

or using the API:

You can create the same subscription filter and the page has no batching.
Depending on the number of subscriptions, the page might time out.

Thank you, Diogo.
My personal prioritization of this is low.
Creating multiple identical subscriptions is not a problem in my book. If you don't allow it, then you get into weird situations, like disallowing modification of a subscription because it would make it just like an existing one. That might even just be a transitional step while you adjust things.
Batching is a separate aspect of this, and could have a separate bug. That said, having many, many pertinent subscriptions is a broken use case IMO; supporting it gracefully is also a low priority IMO.
