Hi there,
I have some performance issue with the grid. The page that uses RadGrid is rendered rather quickly - but once the page is rendered and displayed, it takes the browser a few seconds of processing time before settling down.The amount of cilent side processing is most pronounced in IE6 (firefox is a few times more efficient).
Is this a known issue?
I had a quick look at the HTML and the size of embedded javascript is about 200kb. I am wondering if the browser needs to initialize / execute something when everything has been rendered - and if so what we can do to reduce the processing time.
The grid is not paged and there are about 60 items bound to it. Size of HTML for the RadGrid is a bit over 130kb.
Quick excerpt of the script:
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
Sys.Application.initialize();
Sys.Application.add_init(function() {
$create(Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid, {"ClientID":"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_CategoryGrid","ClientSettings":{"PostBackFunction":"__doPostBack(\u0027{0}\u0027,\u0027{1}\u0027)","AllowExpandCollapse":true,"AllowGroupExpandCollapse":true,"ColumnsReorderMethod":0,"ShouldCreateRows":true,"Selecting":{"EnableDragToSelectRows":true},"Scrolling":{"SaveScrollPosition":true,"ScrollHeight":"300px"},"Resizing":{"ClipCellContentOnResize":true},"ClientMessages":{"DragToGroupOrReorder":"Drag to group or reorder","DragToResize":"Drag to resize","DropHereToReorder":"Drop here to reorder","PagerTooltipFormatString":"Page: \u003cb\u003e{0}\u003c/b\u003e out of \u003cb\u003e{1}\u003c/b\u003e pages"}},"Skin":"Outlook","UniqueID":"ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$CategoryGrid","_activeRowData":"","_clientKeyValues":{},"_currentPageIndex":0,"_editIndexes":"[]","_gridTableViewsData":"[{\"ClientID\":\"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_CategoryGrid_ctl00\",\"UniqueID\":\"ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$CategoryGrid$ctl00\",\"PageSize\":10,\"PageCount\":1,\"CurrentPageIndex\":0,\"VirtualItemCount\":0,\"AllowMultiColumnSorting\":false,\"sliderClientID\":\"\",\"sliderLabelClientID\":\"\",\"Name\":\"\",\"IsItemInserted\":false,\"clientDa
