Slow scrolling after NSPopup implementation

Hi folks,
I hope I can explain this clearly enough. Here goes... ;)

I have an NSTableview in my Core Data app. I have a custom controller providing the tableViews datasource and delegate methods as I need to mung the data a bit between the MOC and the View. This all works fine.

In one column I've replaced an NSTextView, where a user would type data, with an NSPopup to make it easier for them. To make this work I have created an NSArrayController set to the "Account" entity in the MOC and bound the column to the NSArrayController for Content and Content Values. All good still.

In my custom controller I have an array of dictionaries that contain the table data and it's this array that the datasource method uses to provide table data. One of the key's of the array is to provide the index of the Account that should be displayed in the NSPopup.

My datasource method looks like this;

- (id)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView objectValueForTableColumn: (NSTableColumn *)tableColumn row:(int)row
{
if ([[tableColumn identifier] isEqualToString:@"transfer"])
{
self.selectedTransferIndex = [[self.formattedTransactions objectAtIndex:row] objectForKey:@"transfer"];
return nil;
} else {
return ([[self.formattedTransactions objectAtIndex:row] objectForKey: [tableColumn identifier]]);
}
}


My NSPopup column binding "Selected Index" is bound to the "self.selectedTransferIndex" property of my custom controller above. When the tableview delegate is called, It pulls the correct index from the array and sets that property. The binding on the tableColumn then updates the NSPopup. This works great functionally but creates intolerable drag when scrolling which makes me think I'm going about this the wrong way.

Is this the correct method of using an NSPopupCell in the NSTableColumn? Even doing self.selectedTransferIndex = [NSNumber numberWithInt:0] produces a slow result which means it's either the assignment itself, or the binding in the nib object thats slowing things down.

Any help gratefully received.
