I typically try to steer people to 100 of less records on the page at a
time for web based reports. Search / pasing works to help reduce the number
of records on the screen (and sent to the browser) at a time. If they
REALLY want to see more than about 1000 records on a single continuous
page, I push for Excel exports, or in a worst case scenario write it out to
a static HTML file and redirect them there.

At a certain point though, the browser will choke and there is nothing
really technically that can be done about that.
