Grid view very slow to catch-up to the scroll-wheel.

I can scroll to any point in the list view, click on a book and the covers will fill in virtually instantaneously on the cover browser. OTOH when running the Grid view I can scroll to a location, click on a book and it will take anywhere from 10-40 seconds for the covers to fill in. This occurs using the scroll wheel on the mouse or grabbing the slider with the mouse and moving it to a given point.

Ideally at some point the grid view can be optimized to keep up with the scroll wheel.

My Specs:

Windows 7 64bit
Calibre Portable 32 bit ver 0.9.42
i7-2600 CPU 3.4 GHz
8 GB of ram
