I seem to remember a comment on the forum regarding DevExpress grid data load speed being a bit on the slow side. Hopefully the speed I'm seeing isn't typical of a DevExpress grid and we have a problem somewhere.

I have a single grid on a form that shows all 600 records in a table. The data source is a stored procedure which, if I run in Query Analyser returns all rows immediately. However, in the grid, I see a page full of rows as soon as the grid displays and the record count is 1 of 600 but then I get a wait cursor for 40 seconds. I have no idea what's going on in that 40 seconds but could it be that DevExpress is simply loading its data table?

Cheers, Peter

I tried to load/show 10,000 records with 20 columns to DevExpress XtraGrid. It takes me 4 secs. However, if I load 30,000 records it would slow down to 1 min 7 secs.

Is it consider slow compare to Infragistic or other grid?

Please advice.

Thank you
