big treeviews on win32

[Allin Cottrell <cottrell wfu edu>]

I've run into problems with big gtktreeviews on win32 (using both 
gtk 2.4 and 2.6).

I have a data-editing spreadsheet implemented with a treeview.  I 
tried opening a dataset with about 4000 rows.  On Linux it takes a 
few seconds to realize the treeview (not surprising), but once it's 
realized one can readily scroll through all 4000 rows.

On win32 (same machine, same source code) I can't scroll beyond row 
1800 or so, and the scrolling behavior is strange/unstable. 
Sometimes I'll get a big blank area; sometimes the scrolling stops 
at row 800 or so.

Is this a known issue?
