Why
When the collectionView need to resort, the default implementation is to re-render. This can have performance problems on large CollectionViews where ChildViews are a bit complex.
How
ChildViews have already been rendered once so instead of re-rendering them, reuse them and only sort DOM nodes.
Possible problems
ChildViews that knows their index and use it in their rendering will know be able to use this technique since they need to be re-rendered after sorting. This is why this performance improvement is not enabled by default.
