First off; rather than reversing the @orders; why don't you have the
finder that populates it order how you want? Seems like an extra,
redundant step to me.

Then for your scrolling; you could use the commonly-used Will Paginate
to return "pages" of five orders at a time. How you render the pages
(with funky JS fading, etc) is your concern; but it's not uncommon to
use RJS (or your own JS) to replace the content of a div with the
return from a controller.
