So obviously ServerFiltering, if true filters the data on the server side instead of the client side, but what is the real difference? Is it a performance thing? Ideally I'm dealing with a small data set but I dont see any real difference with it true or false...

Hello Joe,
You won't be able to notice a performance difference when server filtering is enabled unless you load a large amount of items into the AutoComplete. Both server filtering and virtualization are features implemented with the idea of improving performance when you load items from a large dataset. You can find more information on these two functionalities in their respective sections of the documentation: Server Filtering, Virtualization.
