Well, just out of curiosity, I decided to put the currencyFormatters and
Filters back in, and then I created two buttons and two button handlers that
would sort my arrayCollection both ascending and decending outside of the
datagrid and then refresh the datagrid, and about fell out of my chair.  The
sorts took less than a second.  Not quite as fast as the mx datagrid sorts,
but definitely usable.  Ugh.  Now I have to figure out how to turn off the
sorting on the headers, figure out how to dispatch an event if a header is
clicked, and write 52 sorting routines for ascending and decending.  Man, I
wish I wasn't so in love with the way a spark datagrid displays :)  HaHa!!

By the way, you may want to give a heads up to the team on the sorting of
large datasets on a spark datagrid.  It isn't pretty.
