Aw: IE8 Performance problems

Hehe well your only chance would be to use CellTable (but that needs at least GWT 2.1), build some pagination into your app so that you do not display all data at once or you generate the whole table as a pure html string and call setInnerHtml (its basically what CellTable does). The last one is really fast on all browsers including IE. 
We did the last solution on a big questionnaire in one of our apps (CellTable wasn't suitable here). We generate it as html on the server, send it to the client and then insert it into a custom widget via setInnerHtml. Works really well. The custom widget overwrites onBrowserEvent to provide some basic event handling we need for some logic behind the questionnaire.

Hope that helps. FlexTable and Grid are really bad for displaying lots of data in IE.
