The Grid has some delay between focus moving for arrow down/up press and
keep traverse. This delay depends on size of the grid: the bigger, the
longer. Therefore maximized grid (e.g. 1000px height) is extremely slow,
especially if cells calculate ellipses for long stings.

The reason why it happenes is redrawing all client area for each key
press event. It could be optimized by calculating area only for previous
focused item and new focused item. It will increase performance of the Grid.

Please find a snippet for demo and patch with possible solution (based
on header_footer brunch).

I would appreciate for any comments or remarks about the issue.

Thank you in advance.

/Andrey

Hi,

Please file a bugzilla and a patch against the header_footer branch!
I'll take a look at it after EclipseCon.
