Edzo,

An exhibit's performance depends on each browser on which it is viewed, 
as all computations happen inside the browser. And a browser's 
performance in turn depends on the computer on which it runs. Different 
users with different browsers on different computers experience 
different performances. In my experience, Safari 3 is the fastest, 
followed by Firefox 2.0, followed by IE 7.

After some number of items such a client-side solution as Exhibit no 
longer works and you need to migrate to a server-side solution. We are 
building such a server-side solution, but it's months away from being 
usable.
