 == "On Request" Loading ==
 The most important difference between CKFinder and the folders tree structures found in desktop operating systems is that in CKFinder the folders are loaded "on request". It means that the application does not load the entire folders tree structure at startup, but instead loads its small subset when the folder is being expanded. This feature is present in most advanced web applications like CKFinder and allows to save on bandwidth and loading time.
