Why is autocomplete slower in 1.4 than 1.3??
Hi All,
I'm making a simple web app and i want to use the autocomplete feature of list view. I noticed that for some reason the JQM 1.3 demo is much faster than the JQM 1.4 demo for local data. What i mean by this is when you type in the 'search box' in 1.3 there is no noticible lag in filtering down the search results, but in 1.4 there is quite a big lag in populating the exact same list (of cars, in this case).
Check it out
Check out the local data (cars) examples to see what i mean.
My questions are:
1) Why is it slower in 1.4?
2) Is there any way to speed it up (other than using the deprecated 1.3!)?
3) Is there some way to speed up REMOTE data (loaded from remote JSON)? For example, Twitter typeahead has a clever way of removing any notable lag from remote data results by 'pre-fetching' the JSON file on page load. Is there some way to do this for JQM?
Thanks in advance for any help/replies.
