How scalable is this? I would love to use this widget, but I have probably 2000 nodes of a certain content type. Is this going to take forever to load or process?

Thanks for your help.

Are you currently using the standard multiple node reference widget?

Server side, multiselect isn't much different from the standard node reference widget,

Client side it executes a javascript call for each item, which would be the likely bottleneck, but this is only for those editing the form, those viewing the node wouldn't experience anything much different from those viewing a node created with the standard node reference widget.

Why don't you give it a try ;). Input would be good.

In the 5.2 branch of this module, performance is much improved (all sorting into selected versus unselected is done server side). So scaling shouldnt be much less of an issue. Let me know if you have any problems, otherwise this will be resolved.
