That is when I said that data is around in some form.
I just tested a table with 13000 entries ...
after "refreshing" it **realy** seems to me all data is  on my PC.
When scrolling there is absolutely **no** freeze, flicker or
other indication of data being fetched in a lazy way.
Also the sliders of the grid indicate perfectly where are in the
data ... ok that might be done using a "total row count" value.
For those who worked with tools doing on demand row fetch.
(I think Delphi 3 Datamanger and Free Toad for Oracle)
they know what I mean.
