Currently the only way to go through the version history is page by page and each time waiting for the page to load, if you are wanting to go back even a few days, it can take quite a while to do so.
I was re-implementing a feature I had removed a few months ago, near the beginning of development and I did not have a locally saved copy of the old place on my laptop to save space. While going back though the version history I found it a pain to have to spend ages going back one page at a time waiting for it to load each time. I thought that this would be a nice UX feature to add.
This is only showing versions 2-3 days ago.
It would be very beneficial for us to have some kind of system similar to Google, allowing you to quickly navigate large amount of pages.
