I believe iPhoto uses OpenGL. During scrolling, output quality is decreased so that rendering time is greatly reduced. It's probably some trick with textures. Someone that actually has dealt with OpenGL (I never have myself) will know for sure.

Introspecting the View with F-Script Anywhere shows the following class heirarchy:
PhotoViewer : ArchiveDisplay : NSControl


and the following view heirarchy:
PhotoViewer -> NSClipView -> NSView -> BeveledBox -> NSView -> NSBox -> OurSplitView -> NSView -> NSView -> NSGrayFrame


so nope... no OpenGL in site.

PhotoViewer has notification methods "networkImageLoadedNotification", "hiResLoadedNotification" and a method "preloadHighRes" so I'm guessing the loading happens in separate threads...
