iOS and dealing with large database

I have a very large database, and I am trying to populate a table view in the most efficient/logical way possible.

I'm leaning toward using an object to store the information in. Any ideas of an more efficient way of doing this? Would core data be better?

Core Data with NSFetchedResultsController will be an efficient way to get that data out of the CD entity and into a UITableView. I have dealt with record sets up to 4500 rows, but never something that large.

One suggestion is to set the fetchLimit down low on any filtering methods

Yeah, for 100K rows, that sounds like Core Data to me. (If necessary, you could write a little app to run on the Simulator that reads in the data and saves it to a Core Data database you'd then include in the app bundle.)
