This is going to be a concern for me too, and I confess I did not follow
the previous thread closely enough.
Simply put, has anyone got a working app that displays, say, 1,000,000
rows through a table view with reasonable performance? I want to
implement an application that can do that.
By the way, at least one application in my area of interest (the
Molecular Operating Environment) seems able to do this in X-windows, so
it clearly is possible. I was shocked at how rapidly MOE could scroll
through an enormous table with 100,000's of compounds - and display a
little chemical structure at the front of each row for good measure!
Have a good weekend,
Randy

Both Scott and his father have had difficulties with iPhoto and
iTunes scaling up to the use they want.
iTunes at any rate is a container for the NSTableView, what I can
determine, and Scott's experience only confirms my previous
misgivings in this matter.
I further suggest to our friend in Maryland that Scott and his
father must have somehow rigged their tests; and to our friend in
Switzerland, that it might be a good idea to accuse Scott and his
father of being sloppy programmers.

Discussion after watching Disney's "Lilo & Stitch":
DAD: "But why did the space aliens speak English, as opposed to French,
or Swahili? And why did the one alien speak English with an Eastern
European accent? I don't get it."
