Ben Stollnitz wrote a great post about how to get data virtualization working in WPF. It’s not baked in (yet) but his libraries and code make it easy. My biggest snag was having the width of my grid view set to automatic which forced the implicit loading of all the items in the collection. He compares two implementations. I started using the latter and it has worked out great so far.
