I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...
As per android architecture there is no such limit to store data in SharedPreference. Better way is to database (SQLite) when you have to deal with huge amount of data
ReplyDeleteI read somewhere that there is no hard limit other than Integer.MAX_VALUE ( maximal string length). But it is not advisable to store that much on shared preferences, as this is XML file which must be parsed and you will have a problems while parsing it.
ReplyDeleteI used to store about 50-100KBytes there. It worked.
As in other answers there is no hard limit. If it is possible you can split your data in multiple SharedPreferences files, also you can compress your data. Huge xml files might be slower to read and write
