I am only a pseudo tech person - so please ignore any silliness in advance.

We are trying to design a Small SaaS application to be used by over 5000 users - to manage contacts, invoices, etc.

There is a single Main Page where we require between 5-7 Grids, each with a different data set and columns (between 4-6 colums in each grid). The data wont be much on each grid - max 10 rows per grid.

We had earlier used some grids from Telerik and Infragistics. This made the page very heavy (something my developers said about DOM elements). Obviously this was a no no for a high performance SaaS app.

I wanted to know if we could use jQuery Grid in the above scenario and get better performance. Also if this is a good idea to have so many different grids or should we rather try to create other light weight controls where possible ?

Thanks a lot in advance.
