Can someone suggest good high performance custom view engine / webpart for SharePoint 2007 to display large list and document libraries with paging support? Either something that is available out in the market or open source project?
A:
You should read "Scaling to Extremely Large Lists and Performant Access Methods" to get some key factors on efficiently retrieving list data.
As of views, you may want to perform some tests yourself to see if performance satisfactory or not.
- Firstly, Load your list with testdata
- Then create appropriate views with filtering and sorting and limiting in place. Show just the relevant results and limit the results to some number. Also, you may want to put items in folders (say, old items if it's suitable for your situation), that will provide better performance on querying items in particular container.

Thanks, I've read the whitepaper. What I really need at the moment is a ready made solution that has this type of things implemented, probably in a 3rd party component that is plug and play ready.
