Well, you have to measure every item in the DP which can take a while. Then, if horizontalScrollPolicy="on" it should honor the size, but if the policy="off" (default), it gets a bit trickier because in that mode, the DG will resize columns inorder to fit them all on screen. You can try setting resizable="false" and then flipping it back to true later if you want to let folks resize it later.
