I have to make an iphone app for some customer.
He should be able to add some data to the app using a HTML form that update an XML file.
So I think this XML file may contain over 1000 item by the time.
Is that normal or should I work with other data storage techniques?
The XML file is used to display some information in UITableView.
1000 items doesn’t seem like a lot if it’s simple textual information.
I worked on an application that displayed several hundreds of complex items using UITableViews on a 1st gen iPad, the amount of data pulled from the webservice was never a problem. The problem I faced was scrolling performance and proper cell reuse.
Of course, you have to be rigorous with memory management if you expect a lot of data to be displayed in your app, else leaks will very quickly make your app crash.
