GridView is much slower than ListBox/ListView #132

Firstly thanksfor this gui library, it is very beautiful.

When I Use Gridview to show thousands of files like file explorer in windows, it has bad performance. The flowwing is my codes:

 <m:GridView     x:Name="lbxGrdFiles" ContextMenu="{StaticResource menu}"
                      PreviewMouseDoubleClick="lvwFiles_PreviewMouseDoubleClick" 
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Path=PagingFiles}" >
                <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate >
                        ...
                    </DataTemplate>
                </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            </m:GridView>

The app need about ten seconds to load layouts. Thus I have to page Files (120 files/page), but it is still cost about 1s to load.
I use ListView with same ItemsSource, it load quickly that less than 0.5s. These are my codes with ListView:

 <ListView   ItemsSource="{Binding Files}" x:Name="lvwFiles" SelectionMode="Extended"
                    Loaded="lvwFiles_Loaded"  PreviewMouseDoubleClick="lvwFiles_PreviewMouseDoubleClick"  ContextMenu="{StaticResource menu}"   >
                <ListView.ItemContainerStyle >
                    <Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
                        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
                    </Style>
                </ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
                <ListView.ItemTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate>
                    ...
                    </DataTemplate>
                </ListView.ItemTemplate>
            </ListView>

Maybe the GridView has no virtual list? I've tryed to add VirtualizingPanel.IsVirtualizing="True" to xaml, but it doesn't work.

Is there any way to improve its performence?
thanks.
