Now that is good news.

Moreover, scrolling through the shelf and also opening and closing the drawer appear to be a little snappier, though that may just be perception.

It should be faster. A contributor to the spurious image problem was that CC was computing info for books that came onto the screen as part of a scroll (which android explicitly asks apps to do) then immediately went off the screen because the scroll was a fling. These computations were a total waste of time, but android doesn't make it obvious that it no longer wants the info. The new implementation does a better job of noticing this situation and canceling the rendering of the no-longer-needed covers. My guess is that this optimization bought back around 15% in cover-rendering performance.

I'm very happy with this major upgrade. It's like a whole new app! CC users will be very pleasantly surprised when they see all the new options.
