I’m very fascinated by one JavaScript library that I’ve found recently. The purpose of this library is very simple: Making  HTML tables sortable.

The performance of sorting a table using this JavaScript library is much better than other table sorting strategies (for example, AJAX+JSON queries to server side).
The quiz of this library is that it  uses the quicksort (makes O(nlogn) comparisons to sort n items) algorithm.
