Well, my initial tests indicates that the slower response is because
of the new library form. The 1.2 version used a different library form
that formatted the document data "dynamically" while the new library 
form does this for *all* documents when you open the library form,
i.e. if you have a lot of documents (regadless whether they are in
RAM or on an external card) it will take a while (it might just take
3-5 clock ticks per entry, but if you have 300 documents then the
total time will still be quite long.)

I did a quick hack that would format the document data only when
rendering it to screen and that increased the speed quite a lot.
The first time you access the document library there will be a 
short delay when it copies the data from PlkrDocList to an internal
list; but after that it will display the documents without any 
delay at all...
