Wicket asynchronous job

Question

I have a page on which I load more select lists with many values populated from database. Now from data base I cannot do much more to optimize that select I'm wondering if is possible to do something from wicket, something to populate that list asynchronous or something with ajax to load that selects asynchronous because my page is oppened very hard :|

<select>
<option1>Value1</option>
<option2>Value2</option>
<option1000>Value1000</option>
</select>

thank's.

There is no paging dropdown or "endless scroll" component for Wicket natively.

But there is a component in jQuery under the Apache License:

http://ivaynberg.github.com/select2/

And there is a Wicket component:

https://github.com/ivaynberg/wicket-select2

As Wicket 6.x uses jQuery natively it should be a good fit.
