Toolbar issue with big datasets

Hi everyone,

I currently use DhtmlxGrid with DhtmlxToolbar for paging.
When I populate my grid, I retrieve 20 results per page, the XML is good.
My issue is that the total count is about 800 000 entries, and my browser freezes when I load the page...
If I reduce the number of entries it is far better, but I can't only display a part of the results.

I found that the toolbar generates many many div like this one (as many as pages of results) :
<div class="buttonItem"><span>Page 8292</span></div>

The generation of these blocks freezes my browser (100% CPU load on a core).

My questions are the following :
- is this a known bug ?
- is there a workaround ?
- why do you generate a div for each page at the loading, instead of generating it on the fly ?

Thanks in advance.
