I don't know why I hadn't thought of this before - it seems obvious now.

Works on Jaguar and Panther.

Only one correction...

if (!NSEqualRects(updateRect, NSZeroRect)) [yourTableView setNeedsDisplayInRect:updateRect];

Hello...

I don't know if this will work (I can't test this at the moment), but you could try "dirtying" just the rows or cells that need to be updated...

For example, if you wanted to update a particular row:

NSRect updateRect = [yourTableView rectOfRow:rowToUpdate];
if (updateRect != NSZeroRect) {[yourTableView setNeedsDisplayInRect:updateRect];}

Or for a particular cell,

NSRect updateRect = [yourTableView frameOfCellAtColumn:columnofCell row:rowOfCell];
if (updateRect != NSZeroRect) {[yourTableView setNeedsDisplayInRect:updateRect];}

That way, hopefully the NSTableView would redraw only the needed rects, and only reload the data for those specific cells. It is also possible that the "dirty" rects will be combined into one large rect, which would mean a more cells being redrawn, but in most cases it would still help, especially if all of the updated cells are close to each other. Of course, it's also possible that it won't cause the cells to be updated at all, or it might end up triggering a full reload anyway, since this is just a theory based on the documentation.
