If you expect your approach to communication to be seen as friendly be
normal readers, then you are both naive and a slow learner.

Safari on a Mac : more than 200k rows : it rocks.
FF2 on a Mac : sluggish @ ~70k rows.
Opera on a Mac : sluggish ~from the start.
Safari windows : ok up to 100k rows then stops responding.
IE8b Windozes : sluggish @ ~6k rows : it sucks.
FF2 Windows : sluggish @ ~70k rows.

click into the window to stop / continue adding rows :

HTH,
