Hi,
We are using Infragistics controls in our project. We are really concerned about the performance of the controls espically the UltraWebGrid which we are using. There is a huge amount of data that is being displayed in the grid(more than 400 rows and 80 columns) and lots of client side functionalities also. Presently the performance is really poor. Please suggest some ways to increase the performance.
I just wanted to know something about the infragistics support. Like
1. How fast the queries are answered?
2. If we want some additional functionalities to be implemented then is it possible for you people to implement it or not and if yes then how much time will it take?
3. The project we are working on is a really big one and requires a very good perfomance. Will infragistics UltraWebGrid and other controls be able to provide such a good performance?

Performance often depends a lot on what you are doing. I once revesed the sort order of a medium-sized dataset and it more than quadrupled the response time.
To see what others have done, use the Search function at the top of the page. Look for "performance" and (separately) for "slow".
And please keep in mind the fact that, when a WebGrid perfoms well, nobody ever posts anything like "Hey, everyone, my WebGrid has a wonderful response time." ;-)
My UltraWebGrid is performing fine! It's the display that is currently giving me troubles right now ;)
I implemented a custom (outside of webgrid) paging solution that displays 20 rows and 5 columns. Was going to try virtual scrolling, but limitations on my db access prevent that for now...
I'm still looking for every eke of performance I can get, I am going to see what script combing does for me. See: http://blogs.infragistics.com/blogs/tony_lombardo/archive/2008/07/28/script-combining-what-s-the-big-deal.aspx
So far, as a (paying) customer for a week now, I've been impressed with the support I've gotten both here in the forums, and via their chat interface.
