In general, the question of where to process data is totally legit. If you
read carefully, he did not say he wanted to *show* 100k rows at once. He
said he wanted to be able to do mass operations on it on the client side.
Without understanding his application and architecture I cannot opine on
whether it is better to do this on the client or server. But the idea, in
applications that may need to scale, of doing more work on the client, is a
good one. If you have lots of clients you can indeed save money on server
costs by having the clients help with the work.
