Display FK List

i have 2 models: Items and a Transactions .

Transactions has a fk to Items. Now, there can be millions of Items, and when i render Transaction as a modelform, i see that all the Items are being fetched - and this is quiet a lot of txt being sent over the wire. Is there an efficient way of associating this txn with an item without displaying it as a HUGE model form?

What i can think of is :
1. suppress/exclude the Item while rendering the form, and instead show another form when the User mentions that he wants to associate this Item with a Txn.
2. Show an ajax field in Items, so that only a subset of the Items are shown as the user progressively types.

However, i am looking for more efficient solutions.
