A number of years ago, Sebastian (I think) did quite a bit of work testing
various approaches to fastest rendering. DOM nodes were manipulated
directly, innerHTML was set, and one or two other options were also tested.
In fact, the Table cell renderers had selectable rendering and could use DOM
or innerHTML or one other thing I don't recall. At the time, I recall that
innerHTML was a pretty clear winner, and at some point, the other renderers
were discarded from the code. It would probably be useful to resurrect that
code in Table, or to find Sebastian's early testing code to ascertain
whether the early findings are still valid or if there's a faster renderer
for modern-day browsers.
