How does AngularJS handle scalability bottlenecks in ng-repeat rendering?
Updated May 15, 2026
Short answer
ng-repeat bottlenecks are handled using track by, pagination, and virtual rendering strategies.
Deep explanation
Rendering large lists using ng-repeat causes DOM thrashing and watcher overload. AngularJS optimizes this using track by for stable identity mapping. Advanced architectures introduce pagination, infinite scroll, or custom virtual scrolling directives to reduce DOM footprint.
