[jQuery] THeory: dealing with really big data sets


Hello,
I was hoping someone can help me with this problem .
I wanted to create a site like www.kayak.com only for a different
industry the concept being the filtering process. I understand using
json and jquery. However i am wondering if anyone had any idea if json
would be a good idea to go with for really big data sets for example a
search resulted in 5000-100000 records. Would the json file very big
( assuming that each row had probably 2000 character) my main concern
being initial loadup speed.
Would a ajax method be preferred that lets say out of 10000 records
we load initially 1000 records and then when we reach 950 we load
another 1000 records ?
Anyone dealt with showing really large data sets using json jquery ?
any help is appreciated.
thanks
andy
