No, putting the whole solution in the session isn't a good idea.
Keeping the resultset in the session isn't either. Even for scrollable
resultsets.
In the future, we'll be using WebRowSets for this functionality,
but, since this is still very new, most of us are stuck with the old
solutions.
IMHO, the only good solution is to just plainly do the same query again and
discard the first x rows.
It looks stupid from a performance point of view, but look at it this way.
- the DBMS uses caching too, so the second time you do an exact same query,
it's probably not very heavy.
- Think about preparedstatements and the possibility of already having the
best access plan...
- In most cases a search engine-like result will only need the first and
maybe the second page. The probability that the x'th page is needed anyhow
decreases very quickly. So I wouldn't bother too much in preparing the
second page a priori.
In extreme programming they call this YAGNI.
- If your query isn't simple and takes some time, you have aproblem anyway.
In that case the first page will also take a long time, and your web page
sucks anyhow ;-) So first solve the first page.
When that's done, the second page is trivial See supra.
