If you applications have multiple tabbed forms and the user can have multiple of them open at the same time. Is it a good idea to load all these data to the front end at application load time or is it better to load lazily when needed. Is there a size limitation to the amount of data you can maintain in browser session? Any best practice guideline?

Help is highly appreciated.

This one is more of an implementation concern and you may not find the right experts on this site. Perhaps ask on stackoverflow.com where there are more people who are good at application development, rather than UX? – Alex Feinman Nov 7 '12 at 22:34
This isn't a SO question. It's possibly more suited to Programmers.stackexchange but they won't take it in it's current format. You'd need to be more descriptive about the issue because currently the only answer is 'it depends'. Have a search on prog.se and see if similar questions have been asked, but if you choose to ask this there then be make sure you really tighten the focus of the question otherwise it'll get closed off there. – JonW♦ Nov 8 '12 at 8:52
