optimize gridview paging

[michael_jhons]

hello everybody, here's what i'm doing: 1. i'm retreiving data through API(atom format), 2. i'm storing all retreived data in a datatable, 3. i'm binding this datatable to a gridview the porblem is that these APIs are feeding thousands of records so each time i'm paging i have to go on with all the above steps (1, 2 and 3) this procedure is taking a lot of time i believe there is a faster way to do that , Apreciating any help, Thank you in advance

thank you for your answer, however this method cannot be applied to my project since i can't control the ammount of data record retrieved by the API again the problem is when i postback the page, i have to retrieve again all the data, i have no problem to load at the first time thank you again for your concern
