Re: Populating dropdown
Hi,
Maybe you can divide your options in categories and use several
dropdowns with an ajax loading.
>From the user point of view, large data in dropdowns are not very
usefull.

Even if you could make the population of your drop-down faster, you're still going to have some serious useability issues with a dropdown of that size.

As suggested, using some form of autocompleter might be a good idea, depending on how the back end is implemented. A dropdown with that many elements is going to cause problems on several fronts; it might make the JSP to big (some (all?) app servers won't handle a JSP larger than 64K), it may cause an issue in some browsers due to sheer size, and it'll almost always render fairly slowly.

Re: Populating dropdown
Better option would be: using *autocompleter* instead of select.
