Fastest ASP.NET AJAX Data Grid Available

We carried out performance testing and load testing on our ASP.NET AJAX data grid, Data Grid, which proves to be the fastest on the market. Built on the Aikido™ Framework, and taking advantage of lightweight ASP.NET AJAX messaging between client and server, it excels past the competition. Below is a sneak peek into our performance testing.  To get the complete test results, download the ASP.NET AJAX performance whitepaper today!! 

Single-user Browser Operations

Scenarios tested the full cycle – browser rendering (using Internet Explorer 7) and server response time of our ASP.NET AJAX WebDataGrid versus several competitors' data grids. The tests more closely represent the customer experience when using the tested data grids in Web applications found used by banks, call centers, insurance companies, etc.

In all phases of this test, our competitors grids' proved to be slower than the Infragistics ASP.NET AJAX data grid.

Payload Size

How do we achieve such amazing performance in WebDataGrid? The simple answer is – a rock solid architecture in the Aikido Framework on which the WebDataGrid is based, and a payload size that is smaller than our competitors. To demonstrate this, we used Fiddler 2 to monitor the data exchanged between server and client.

In all phases of this test, our competitors grids' proved to have a higher payload size by an average of 30%.

Load Testing

When we see how big our advantage is with a single-user, we decided to see what happens when we load our competitors' grids with lots of concurrent users. We repeated the following scenario using a commercial Web loading tool on the client PC to simulate the load for 1 hour, with a think time between all operations of 2 seconds, and a ramp up to 50 users total (adding 2 users every 15 seconds).

The load test scenario was:

  • Initial request
  • Numeric filtering ("Less than")
  • Clear Numeric filtering
  • Paging ("Next")
  • Paging ("Previous")
  • Numeric sorting

Our Average Throughput (bytes/second) proved to be 51% better than our competitor. This comes directly from our excellent payload size.

Our Average Hits/second proved to have around 15% better productivity per unit time for users.

Finally, you should not forget that these results are achieved in environments where both PCs are on one network switch. In real life, the client and server may be separated by great distances and the network bandwidth will be limited, so this percentage will increase because of the amazing payload size of WebDataGrid. These benefits could result in tens of thousands of dollars a week, and potentially millions of dollars per year in savings.
