Re: dataTable inefficiencies - hit db twice on each request

You can simply set your backing bean as session-scoped.

Also take a look at:

Hi,

 

I noticed that if preserveDataModel=false, then JSF will attempt to fetch the table data twice – once during the apply request values phase, and once during the render response phase. It doesn't do that if preserveDataModel=true, but then I don't get proper sorting in the table.

 

Hitting the database twice on every request is not acceptable – so is there a way around this?

 

Thanks
