Datatable times out

Roszak

I am returning 7000 rows and trying to paginate using datatables using IE7. It's taking forever and I get an alert "Stop running this script?". If I choose "No" it completes after some time. Is ther some max or optimum # of rows Datatable should run with?

Thanks

When client-side processing - in IE7 the max is around 1000-2000 rows, before you need to start considering Ajax loading data with deferred rendering (many thousands of rows) or server-side processing (millions of rows). Newer browsers are _much_ faster and cope with larger data sets no problem.
