jQuery mobile: Dealing with large list

jQuery mobile: Dealing with large list

Hello,

I am new to jQuery Mobile and have some basic questions which I am sure the experts here could resolve.

Problem 1:
-------------
Which is the best known way in context to performance in which we can load a list of items. Say, I have a list of 2000 items, what should be my approach to show the list to the user. I have heard something on lazy loading but could not yet find a working solution for it.

Problem 2:
--------------
The base of the problem is same as Problem 1. The only difference is that I want to know how to load the multiple images quickly. For. e.g. what the e-com sites generally do to show the images of different products or the many thumbnails in the search results.

Hoping to get quick response.

Thanks!
