In what scenarios would it be beneficial to preload all user details for display in Bootstrap modals, and when is it more efficient to use AJAX calls for individual user details?

When dealing with a small number of users or when user details are not frequently updated, it may be beneficial to preload all user details for display in Bootstrap modals to reduce the number of AJAX calls and improve performance. However, in scenarios where there are a large number of users or when user details are frequently updated, it is more efficient to use AJAX calls for individual user details to ensure that only the necessary data is fetched and displayed. 

```php
// Preloading all user details for display in Bootstrap modals
$users = getAllUsers(); // Function to retrieve all user details

foreach ($users as $user) {
    // Display user details in Bootstrap modal
    echo '<div class="modal fade" id="userModal' . $user['id'] . '" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="userModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">';
    echo '<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">';
    echo '<div class="modal-content">';
    echo '<div class="modal-header">';
    echo '<h5 class="modal-title" id="userModalLabel">' . $user['name'] . '</h5>';
    echo '<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">';
    echo '<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>';
    echo '</button>';
    echo '</div>';
    echo '<div class="modal-body">';
    echo '<p>Email: ' . $user['email'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p>Phone: ' . $user['phone'] . '</p>';
    echo '</div>';
    echo '</div>';
    echo '</div>';
    echo '</div>';
}

// Using AJAX calls for individual user details
// JavaScript code to trigger AJAX call for user details
<script>
    function getUserDetails(userId) {
        $.ajax({
            url: 'getUserDetails.php',
            type: 'POST',
            data: { userId: userId },
            success: function(response) {
                // Display user details in Bootstrap modal
                $('#userModal').html(response);
                $('#userModal').modal('show');
            }
        });
    }
</script>

// getUserDetails.php
<?php
$userId = $_POST['userId'];
$userDetails = getUserDetails($userId); // Function to retrieve user details by ID

// Display user details in Bootstrap modal
echo '<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">';
echo '<div class="modal
