Bengt: Slow IE table

Copied from discussion:

Sorry about posting in wrong thread...didnt notice it.
The problem discovered in 1.9.0 which is the first version I've ever tried and it occurred the first day.

is a link to a demo site that can be used for debugging. It seems to work ok with Chrome, FF, Safari and Opera but takes 30-40s to load with IE. Using profiling in IE indicates that most time is spent in _fnGatherData()

It is hard to tell in Webkit (I don't have access to IE at the moment), but is the table hidden (i.e. in a display:none) element when the page is loaded? If so, then that is likely to be the problem as IE is very slow when reading data from hidden elements.

Ok - its 5 tables and all except one is hidden. I changed it so they will be hidden after the call to init dataTables and now it will load in 10s (instead of 40s).
Its to slow so I have to check if there is any other solution....
