Dgrid Pagging not retrieving data back to server

Question

I am trying to use Dojo's dGrid as a replacement for jqGrid because it cannot do multiple-line row data. The dgrid site has a sample pagination that retrieves data once and does the pagination multiple times. I am concern with this because it may cause performance problem if the data is already too large. I was wondering if dGrid has an option to do pagging while requesting data for each pagination.

The source example in the dojo site.

http://dojofoundation.org/packages/dgrid/tutorials/grids_and_stores/demo/Pagination.html

I checked the option for Pagination and there seems to be no logic to change the behavior of the store.

Also, for the store data query. Is the data only filtered by client based.

Edited After answer:

I noticed that the following question also partially answer this question. Adding for future reference. -nap Related

Answer 1

Dojo has a standard Store API which all data-driven components use, including dgrid. The dgrid demo uses a basic Memory store which is not appropriate for a production site. You would implement and use a JsonRest or similar store for your server instead of a Memory store to use with your production site.
