Hello Frank, I have just begun developing an application using paged tables and IDataProvider. My environment is hibernate with thousands of items to display, so hopefully the laze instantiation will keep memory utilization low.
Anyhow, I would like to take a peek at your code. If you don't mind, just tar the directory and attach to a personal email.
