IE8 "stop unresponsive script" issue with EmberJS DOM renders

You could look at some of the ideas we’re experimenting with at Ember is very slow at rendering lists

If it is because of a big list, you might break the work into chunks by adding to the bound array in steps with a setTimeout. Without knowing what you’re app is taking time on I can’t suggest anything more specific.

The idea that ember could somehow detect situations where it was running slowly and pause execution for a moment to avoid the warning is interesting.
