RadGridView for WPF performance compared to Microsoft DataGrid

by Vladimir Enchev | Comments 8

Today I saw this blog post and I couldn't resist to test RadGridView for WPF using the same data :)

Looks like by default our grid will sort approximately 10 times faster - no need to build your own custom comparers.

So, is MSFT's grid 10 times slower than Telerik's Grid OR is Telerik's Grid 10 times faster than MSFT's Grid? :-) ..Ben
Vlad
One thing is for sure - thank's to Mr. Deshev and the other WPF guys we will be able to test the same in SL very soon ;-)

Hi Vlad. Was wodnering did you ever to compare your DataGrid vs MSFT DataGrid but WITH CustomSort ?
Vlad
Hi Joe, Generally my idea was to test the default grid sorting instead of applying custom comparers to the collection. If I do this most probably I will get identical results.
Mike
Are you using a DataTable bind to a DataView in this test?
Vlad
Mike, Both grids are bound to ObservableCollection<Employee>. You can check the source code.
Mike
Ok, but your sort is slower than the Custom Sort
Vlad
MIke, Please read my reply to Joe!
