You can't make getting the selection faster without slowing down all
modifications to the tree and slowing down the process of selecting
rows, because you would have to maintain a list of selected rows.

So the selection gets stored as flags on the tree itself.

Have a look at the implementation, if you can come up with a way to
speed it up feel free to file a bug in bugzilla.
