Returning a 30K table as an HTML table in one single request will actually have pretty poor rendering time in the browser. Some browsers (I don't know about IE) will not render a table until they hit the </table> tag so that they don't have to re-flow it. We have some pages at work that show 3-5K rows regularly (yes, it is useful sometimes), but they are already pretty slow to display (counting from when the data starts leaving the server and going to the client).
I think if you want a snappy solution you'll have to do what others have recommended: send the first X rows down and then use AJAX to dynamically load the rest either on-demand, or simply sequentially after the page loads. Probably using JSON would lead to more compact representation and faster parsing the JS layer as opposed to XML, but I'm not sure how big a different that would make. -t On Jul 21, 2008, at 10:16 AM, Lionel wrote: > Ken wrote: >> I need to render about 30,000 >> rows without pagination into a scrollable table with sorting >> capabilities.
