Updating a single cell (not the entire row) in slickgrid with DataView

Updating a single cell (not the entire row) in slickgrid with DataView

I have a slickgrid (using a DataView) that I'm using to display rapidly
changing values. As far as I know, when a value changes in the underlying
model, the only choice I have is to update the entire row:
dataView.updateItem(rowId, rowData);
Unfortunately, even if certain values haven't changed (i.e. I'm only
updating one cell's value in the entire row), slickgrid repaints the
entire row (I'm using the Chrome dev tools to see what is being rendered).
I also have a implementation of the same UI and here I'm able to paint
individual cells (or groups of cells) that update, and rendering is
roughly 3x as fast. It's not exactly apples-to-apples, but I would like to
be able to limit the amount of painting that occurs if possible,
considering on any given update, generally only one or two cells (on a
long row of data) have changed.
