One tip/trick I learnt from my current company. Make the DataGrid 4
pixels high, once the data has loaded resize the DG.

[Flashcoders] Speed up Datagrids

2006-07-20 Thread Doug Coning
I've created an RIA application that depends heavily upon the Enhanced
Datagrid.  I like the datagrid quite a bit, however, each time a window
opens, it can take upwards of 10 seconds for the datagrid to
instantiate, and this is testing with small bits of data (Nothing more
than 40 records).  I load the data by using the .dataProvider method
which comes back from the server very quickly.  Most of my datagrids
only have 1 to 4 columns, so the column sizes are not the problem.  Yes,
a lot of them have cell renderers which I'm putting in a checkbox,
button or image.   Once the datagrid loads, it runs very well.  I just
don't think the user is going to like waiting 10 to 15 seconds everytime
they open a window in flash that has a datagrid.

Does anyone have any successful strategies for speeding up the datagrid
component?

Does anyone know if the List component is faster than the datagrid
component for showing simple data?

Thanks,
