I'm using the Nebula grid component in a standalone java app I'm working on (not an Eclipse Plugin). I am running into a case where it is sometimes taking 3 minutes to populate the grid component with GridItems. I'm thinking that is can't be avoided due to the large number of rows I have... but want to make sure. Below is a short snippet of how I am creating the grid items. Is there a more efficient way to populate a Grid Component that I am not aware of?

		_grid.setLayoutDeferred(true);
		GridItem delimiters = new GridItem(_grid, SWT.NONE);
		SegmentAnalysis delimiterDetails = analyzeResult.getContextDelimiters();
		delimiters.setText(delimiterDetails.getSegmentId());
		delimiters.setText(1, delimiterDetails.getSegmentName());
		delimiters.setText(2, "Segment-" + delimiterDetails.getSegmentId());
		delimiters.setText(5, Integer.toString(delimiterDetails.getUseCount()));
		for (ElementAnalysis e : delimiterDetails.getElementList()) {
			GridItem element = new GridItem(delimiters, SWT.NONE);
			element.setText(e.getElementName());
			element.setText(5, Integer.toString(e.getUseCount()));
			for (Entry<String, Integer> em : e.getElementMap().entrySet()) {
				GridItem value = new GridItem(element, SWT.NONE);
				value.setText(4, "'" + em.getKey() + "'");
				value.setText(5, Integer.toString(em.getValue()));
			}
		}


Thanks in advance for any ideas/ advice.

Have you tried call _grid.setRedraw(false) before you are filling the
grid and turn it back on after you filled it?

And IMHO 3 Minutes *are* unacceptable IMHO - how many items are we
talking about? Have you tried doing this in a flat (=none tree layout?)?

See my blog entry about GridViewer where the time to fill a Grid with
200.000 rows takes roughly 1.4 seconds!

_grid.setRedraw(false) seem to have made it worse. It's now taking about 5 minutes (although that could just be increased load on my desktop).

As far as the number of rows, I'm creating about 250,000. I haven't tried not using the tree layout, as that is the main reason I went with the Nebula Grid.

Can you give me the URL to your blog (or specific post)?

please create a self-contained sample one can run locally, then we can
take a look where time is spent.
