I am using a RadGrid from Telerik with Ajax enabled. Whenever an Ajax call happens, the page responds with 56 KB of JavaScript validators in addition to the new grid data (in addition to 40k of viewstate - argh). Is there any workaround for this?
A:
Have you tried binding it to a web service instead of doing standard server-side binding? See "ASP.NET Grid Demo - .NET 3.5 - .NET 3.5 Client-side Data Binding".
Most of the Telerik controls, which I have experience with, get about a 10 times speedup when you switch to web services from server-side Ajax.
