AngularJS: Temporarily disable data binding.

Question

Is it possible to temporarily disable data binding in AngularJS. I have a list items which I render using ng-repeat. I want to do some list operations on items, while data-binding is temporarily disabled, so that the intermediary changes are not reflected on the page thereby slowing it down. Instead I want to perform the operations on the list and thereafter re-enable data binding.

You could always perform these list operations on a copy of the items if that is feasible for your situation. More context would help. — miqh

The model already only updates after the code that does the manipulation has run. You may need to describe how the manipulation works to get anything more useful. — KayEss
