Hi,

>From my knowledge NatTable has a better performance for huge data sets. And
it provides a lot of additional features out of the box, e.g. filter row,
groupby, print, export, summary row etc. For a better overview of the
features you should step through the examples application.

To be honest, I am not very familiar with Nebula Grid and therefore can't
tell anything about the feature set there. I just used it once for
performance comparison. Using it is similar to the JFace viewer. NatTable
has a completely different approach in the architecture, and is therefore
more difficult to get started with.

Not sure about your use cases and requirements, but compared to the effort
for making NatTable RAP ready, I would go for some other table widget and
see if it provides what I need.

Greez,
Dirk
