It's the same. To make virtual table work,
(1) you need to know the exact number of rows,
(2) then be able to locate rows using index numbers.
Because of the first condition, even if you use Virtual tables,
it takes time DBMS to compute the numbers. Second,
you are using virtual table to handle large data. Unfortunately
if you use scrollable result tables, this will be huge burdon to
both client and dbms server. So unless you have well prepared
data for this purpose, performance will be always an issue.

For scrollable result tables, look at JDBC APIs. It has
nothing to do with AWT or SWT!
