A performance benchmark comparing three popular React data grids: KendoReact, MUI Grid, and AG Grid. Tests cover four scenarios: basic grid (no virtualization), paged grid, row virtualization, and row+column virtualization, with datasets ranging from small to 1 million rows. MUI leads on small datasets without virtualization, but KendoReact consistently outperforms both competitors once paging or virtualization is enabled—especially at scale, rendering 1 million rows in under 1 second versus 5+ seconds for MUI and AG Grid. The post is authored by a Progress (KendoReact vendor) developer advocate, so results should be interpreted with that context in mind.
