#9062 closed enhancement
DataGrid lazier loading of items — at Version 2

Description (last modified by )
dojox.grid.DataGrid forcibly loads all items it displays. This can be rather wasteful. The attached patch makes loading a bit lazier by checking wether all the attributes intended to be displayed in the grid are present on an item.
This change may not work well with cells whose value is calculated by dojox.grid.__DataCellDef.get(). Such a user-supplied get function would have to ensure that the item indeed has all required attributes and, if necessary, load it.

This patch looks like it only works with a particular dojo.data store; probably you are working with JsonRestStore? item.hasAttribute() isn't supported by the dojo.data API. (In fact, there are no supported methods on the items themselves.)
There is a store.hasAttribute() call. However, the dojo.data API in general doesn't have a concept of partially loaded items, so even calling store.hasAttribute() doesn't seem sufficient.
Having said that though, ISTM that loadItem() shouldn't be called in grid at all. The call is from [14767] and should only be executing in the case of TreeGrid, which is a new widget under #7402. When is loadItem() executing for you?
