Hi, I am trying to bind a datatable to ultragrid via C# in an windows application. The datatable contains 60,000 rows and 20 columns. The binding time (in milliseconds) for 32 BIT (2 GB RAM) and 64 BIT (4GB RAM, same processors) systems is as given below:
As is evident from the data, though the system configuration of 32 bit machine is inferior to the 64 bit machine, time taken for 64 bit machine is more. Is it because I am using a 32 BIT Infragistics dll for the 64 BIT system. Is there any 64 bit dll for infragistics? Please Help.....

Do you get similar results when binding to a .NET DataGridView? I recall seeing some performance benchmarks a while back related to the fact that much of the performance increase was actually in the .NET code that the particular application used through binding, though since this was a while ago, I'm afraid that I don't remember the specifics. There are no 64bit-specific versions of NetAdvantage, but you could certainly target your application to compile for 64bit; furthermore, I do not believe that any of the .NET DLLs themselves are compiled for a x64. As a final note, since 32bit applications will run through the WOW64 emulation layer on an x64 machine, it is expected that there may be a performance hit (though these numbers seem rather high to attribute to that).

Hi Matt, Thanks for your reply.
I tested the same with a .NET DataGridView, and the comparison of time in milliseconds to databind the datatable (60000 rows and 20 columns) to the datagridview is given below.
So the performance of datagridview on 64 bit system is better than that for 32 bit system. But we need the ultragrid for our project as it supports the multi band structure. Please advise....
