    Hello,

    We noticed a problem with SpreadJS. We have large MsExcel files, around 50,000 lines. When in an Excel sheet, there are thousands of hidden rows, SpreadJS seems to no longer respond adequately and we notice slowness problems.

    You can reproduce the problem with the two attached files. One file contains 50000 visible lines, the other file has the majority of its lines hidden so you can notice the difference in behavior in SpreadJS.

    We noticed the same problem on the online Demo site.

    Hi,

    I would like to mention another situation really similar. When using filter and there are a lot of hidden rows shown on the screen, we can also see the slowness. But, when scrolling to a zone where there is no hidden row, it is much faster. I suppose it try to do the rendering of all the visible rows (including the hidden one)
