$.fn.data() internally uses $.fn.trigger() for whatever reason. When using $.fn.data() heavily, $.fn.trigger() starts to slow down the code. In my situation Firebug profiler tells me 20% of the time is consumed by $.fn.trigger() as a result of $.fn.data() calls.
Shouldn't it be possible to get rid of $.fn.trigger() in $.fn.data() or make $.fn.trigger() more efficient?
