I think you know this information I will just try and confirm it so you don't go crazy.
The List control does not create all the items up front, which is nice for first time loading performance, but once you start scrolling it starts to create the items and thats where the scroll issue happens. And as you mentioned using a Repeater with large datasets has its issues too. So basically you have encounted a performance issue with Flex/Flash and there is no happy answer.
