Scrollbar based loading on large data sets

I'm kind of new to DataTables and digging around to see if it's a viable solution to a project I'm working on. We will be loading several large data sets (from 1,000-100,000 records) and I'm really eager to use a lazy loading solution for this project.

I see that DataTables offers server side processing with data loads triggered by scrolling to the bottom of the currently loaded data... However, I'm curious if it can be altered a little to be more intuitive. For instance, here's an example of a Dojo based solution via GridX:

The scrollbar is pre-adjusted to account for the data size, and the data is loaded in sets of 200 based on where you have dragged the mouse.

Any thoughts?

Have a look at the Scroller extra http://datatables.net/extras/scroller/

I think that's what you are looking for
