So I used the installer to install Flex 4.14.1 in combination with Air 22.0. I thought initially that it helped because the first sort took about 4 seconds. But all subsequent sorts on the headers took anywhere from 12-30 seconds. The ArrayCollection that I am using just has fairly bland info in it - text in the form of addresses and cities, integers in the form of zipcodes, and four columns that contain either integers or numbers that are formatted using a currencyformatter for prices. The size of the array is about 38k records by 25 columns. I store the dates in my database as integers, and then convert it to simply days in my dataprovider arraycollection when I populate it, so it should not be a complex object. The only other thing that I did is I converted all of the objects in my ArrayCollection to objectProxies because I was getting binding errors in my itemRenderer and that got rid of them. So I have an arrayCollection with ObjectProxies that contain, strings, integers, and numbers, four of which have a currencyformatter associated with them.
I have installed Scout if there is anything in particular that you would like to see. Please let me know if you have any other thoughts or suggestions. I can't really show the program to a client like this, it is crazy slow. I doubt it, but would disabling sorting on the headers and creating my own sorts help at all? -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/Why-are-Spark-Datagrid-headers-sorting-my-data-so-slowly-in-Air-tp13026p13040.html Sent from the Apache Flex Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
