Mottie/tablesorter

Slow since >2.13.2

I use a massive table with lots of cols (50) and rows (up to several hundred) and the filter and pager widget and the speed up to version 2.13.1 was okay with 5-8 seconds for the tablesorter call. Today I wanted to introduce the newer version 2.14.1 and I ran into browser-JS timeouts. The performance decreased even more on stupid IE (which the customer uses).
So I have to continue to use 2.13. Can I do something to point out what is causing the problems?

Hi @haraldkrischner!

It does look like there is a bug causing multiple repeated calls that re-render the table causing a lot of lag.

The pager widget is working, but still in beta and not thoroughly tested, so I wouldn't rely on it in production just yet.

I think I found a solution to this problem, but I probably won't be able to implement the fix or update the repository for a day or two.

Thanks anyway for your enormous commitment. I appreciate your efforts a lot. (accidently closed it ;) )
