# Large Data Amount Initial Load

 * We have a table with 7,697 rows, 4 columns. Do you have any suggestions for reducing
   the initial load and delay. Currently it loads all 7 thousand rows initially 
   and then paginates.
 * Once it’s loaded it responds very quickly.
 * Thank you so much for making this plugin, it’s solved a data issue for us very
   well.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Unfortunately, I have bad news here. TablePress only supports loading the entire
   table at once, so that there’s nothing really that I can do about this 🙁
 * Now, the DataTables JS library that TablePress uses for the sorting, etc. does
   support a server side loading mechanism, where only the required parts of a table
   are loaded at a time. This can not yet be used with TablePress however, but e.
   g. with the commercial wpDataTables plugin from [http://wpdatatables.com](http://wpdatatables.com)(
   I have no connection to this and have never tried it, but I thought that I should
   mention it).
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi Tobias,
    Thank you so much for getting back to me and with the recommendations.
   Please don’t be sorry, loading 7K records is a bit intense.
 * Thank you for making a great plugin!
 * Best Regards,
    Diana

 * Hi,
 * no problem, you are very welcome! Sorry that I could not offer a direct solution.
   I hope that you can find a satisfactory workaround, and that TablePress is maybe
   useful for other tables on your site.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
