Prevent clicking during a datatable server side request?

Hello,
I try to find the better way to prevent datatable from clicking during a server side request.
Indeed, we have a database which can be slow to respond and we would like to prevent other actions until it send back the response.
What would be the best way between following choices :
- Modal window. I have made some tests and our datatable is in a portlet so the modal window should have effect only on this portlet.
- Button disabling. It is OK on custom search filters but it can be a problem with pagination plugin which seems to deal with this effect internally.
The best way would be to disable entirely the component during server side processing but I don't know how to do that.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,
Nathan
