    * Should this panel pull content in over AJAX?
    *
    * Normally, panels use AJAX to render their content. This makes the page
    * interactable sooner, allows panels to render in parallel, and prevents one
    * slow panel from slowing everything down.
    *
    * However, some panels are very cheap to build (i.e., no expensive service
    * calls or complicated rendering). In these cases overall performance can be
    * improved by disabling async rendering so the panel rendering happens in the
    * same process.
    *
    * @return bool True to enable asynchronous rendering when appropriate.
