Transaction batching

React chapter 128 · AG Grid internals · source: packages/ag-grid-community/src/clientSideRowModel/clientSideRowModel.ts

The problem

Click Send 30 price updates. Every update recalculates the total, so one burst causes 30 derived passes and moves the total from 60 to 90.

The pattern that fixes it

Click Send 30 price updates: each update would recalculate the total separately → queue all transactions for 300ms, apply every increment, and calculate the combined total once. The total still rises from 60 to 90, but Derived passes rises by only 1.
