In my experience, the amount of data that starts making it a sluggish varies from machine to machine. More ram handles more data better than less ram does. I never said it was due to the actual size of the page though. I said you don't want to overload a JS array.
But yea, at a certain point it would be better to find another means of doing this. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

No, I read that. But even on modern hardware with modern browsers, JavaScript is STILL slow with largish datasets. It's just not well optimized for handling any significant amount of data. You can start seeing noticeable performance issues with as few as a couple hundred values in an array depending on how it's being populated, the complexity of the data, etc. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bobby Hartsfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 8:57 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Anyone familiar with the CF_TwoSelectsRelated custom tag? > > I guess you both stopped reading just before this... > > > This all, of course, depends on how MUCH data we are talking > > about though.
