• my experiences are as follow:

  reading a file, reading from a iSQL-DB is quite fast on all devices (at least the apple ones, can't speak for android phones), the bottleneck can be found in appcelerators code for displaying tablerows. rendering 1000 rows for me took about 9 secs on a iPhone 3GS and about 20+ secs on a 3G. i heard that the devs are working on making this faster at the moment (there is also a bug with iOS4 that slows down this process compared to 3.x)

  this was measured when using "custom" tablerows, i guess it would be faster, if using the basic method for creating tableview data, if you have the flexibility to use a simple tableview-design

• Mmmm. Yeah i'm having tableview performance issues as well, Perhaps i've got too many images in the view, however I can't get away from that, there needs to be 6 - 8 images per row.

  I only have 6 rows at the moment and it's shocking, I want to understand setting the className better, apparently it saves templates or something.

• Actually i Appear to have overcome the tableview issue, I wrap each row in a view and then just load the view into the row.

  Performance is fine then. No changes to code, Just wrap a view in it, tie a bow :D

  var row1 = Titanium.UI.createTableViewRow({height:100});
  var row =  Titanium.UI.createView({height:100,width:300});
  row.add(GameID);
  row1.className = CustomData[i].Type;
  row1.add(row);
  data.push(row1);
  };
  TheTable.setData(data);
