jQuery Fullcalendar - optimum number of events on calendar

Question

We have events that span single day on fullcalendar.

How many single day events can be show without causing performance problem on typical user browser -- Is it 100 / 150 / 200 - more ?

Related events are grouped together, and are shown/hidden using a list of checkboxes one for each group. Each group typically contains 10-15 events.

How many events would be optimum if we were to hide/show events based on the checkbox clicks - each checkbox click involves looping thru the list of events and identifying which ones need to be shown and this list is rendered at once.

Answer 1

Well I have noticed that getting around 30 events on my calendar can slow things down a little but as far as an upper limit goes I am not sure. This would depend greatly on what browsers your clients are using. Looking at it form a usability/design standpoint I don't know if I would like a calendar with more than 100 or 200 events on it.
