rendering in background with datatables? [1.9.4]

szaqal

Hey,

I'm using DataTables 1.9.4 with few plugins (ColVis, ColReorderWithResize and ColumnFiltering). The parameters I'm using for server-side communication are:

• "bServerSide"
• "fnServerData"
• "sAjaxSource"

Now, let's say I have to display 3000 rows with around 25 columns without pagination ("iDisplayLength": -1). The json containing the data weights around 1MB and it takes around second for server to send it to datatables.

The problem is the rendering of those 3000 rows take few seconds (around 5-10, which is unacceptable). On IE, it can take quite more, resulting in "Script doesn't respond" errors.

I wish I could speed this process up somehow - i.e. by showing lets say 100 rows and rendering the rest in background. Is there a better way?

Best,
Marcin
