I was so excited about Spark DataGrid coming in Flex 4.5.
I was expecting to have a better performance and to be less memory consuming. I know that Spark DataGrid is in early stage of development etc, but I will still use MX DataGrid until I really see those improvements.
I did a test with data set of 100.000 objects.
It turns out that MX DataGrid has a much better performance (especially when sorting dataProvider, where Spark DataGrid completely freezes). All i did in this test is scrolling, editing and sorting the same amount of data in same intervals in both DataGrids.

It seams that (good ?) old MX DataGrid will be around for some more time...

Could you publish your code and methodology (in a new post) so we can verify and fix this ?
ReplyDeleteI agree, I think he just ran a memory profiler
ReplyDeleteWe're also looking at the advantages of both Datagrids. Have you got any source-code / methodology to that you can post?
