hello,

I am trying to correct a few performance issues with my application,
which display live market data in JTables.

for each update, I use the "invokeLater" method, so create a new
Runnable, and append one event to the event-dispatching thread.

at some point, I can see in my profiler that the dispatching of event
is getting bloated and slow, most probably because of a big number of
almost simultaneous updates.

my idea would be to query the size (length) of the event-dispatching
thread, and in case it's already big (value to determine), I could
decide on advertising only part of the updates (some are more important
than others).

would you know of a method or way to achieve that ?
thanks for your help

Antoine
