Dataset and scalability issue

I am creating a winforms application. Drag and drop and VS 2005
automatically created Dataset based on the MDB schema. I found it seems
that all the changes are cached in the memory. Will the default way has
any scalability issue if the database tables are huge? What's the
solution if it does have the issue?
 
One of the problems with the DataTable object is its name. While it can
contain all of the rows a database table, it's (insert expletive) to do so.
As I discuss at length in the book, a DataTable should contain a logical
subset of the rows you need at the time. Any operations that need to be
taken against the entire table need to be done on the server--not in memory.

I think that better is to write next time, "-not at the client", both is of
course in memory
