I was going to suggest polyGrid. I used it when it was still in development to solve the text overrun problem. It works like the datagrid, only loading the visible text in batches as you scroll and performs very well.

My testing attempts, like Bernd’s, show that the important “limits” are not just what LC can display in a field but what it can display without making things too slow. I am also wondering if the new polyGrid has different characteristics, either its absolute limits or its performance when heavily populated.

Richard Gaskin asks “Why?”

I have developed a set of routines to analyze tabular data. For KB or MB-sized files, it is convenient to display them in a field. It would be simplest if I could also load GB-sized files and use my routines unchanged, but I accept that this is impractical. But in order to design workarounds I’d like to get as much clarity as possible on what limits I am working around.
