Hey

     I am using Rad Grid view. I am loading 24K records and its taking 30 seconds to load.  If i tried to Move my form , form shows "Not responding ".    How can i stop this ? Is  there any way to reduce the loading time ?

regards

Hello Naji,

You should be able to get rid of the "not responding" problem by loading the records on a separate thread. You can find more information about this here:

As for reducing loading time, it depends on how/where you are loading your records from. The actual binding the the RadGridView should be a pretty quick operation. It is possible to achieve a performance increase by using virtual mode. Virtual mode allows you to implement your own custom data management operations.

I hope this information helps.
