Explain that the `cells` option is a function invoked before every rendering cycle and runs for each visible cell, making it heavier than the static `cell`/`columns` options or `setCellMeta()`. Direct users to prefer lighter alternatives and reserve `cells` for logic that can't be expressed otherwise. https://claude.ai/code/session_011NCnBtswtc4PSGbpAaASsr

Overview
Adds a new performance-guide section warning that the
cellsoption is evaluated on every render for every visible cell and can significantly impact grid performance.Recommends lower-overhead alternatives (
cell,columns, andsetCellMeta()) and expands the “Related API reference” to include these options plus a new “Core methods” entry forsetCellMeta().Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit ec7afab. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
