Clusterize.js

Small (1.5 KB) Javascript library that lets you render tables, lists, etc. with hundreds of thousands of items.

How it works is that you move your data set from the DOM into JS. Clusterize than makes sure only the rows in the viewport (and adjacent batches) are rendered.

I believe that AngularUI's data grid component uses a similar technique to reduce the number of bindings in large tables, but I can't seem to find documentation on that.
