Bug Description

It looks like the auto-scroll speed of the launcher is very slow, not sure it is a problem of performances (doesn't look like). Please compare to prototype and check section 4.3.1 in the specs.

the auto-scroll speed in unity is matching the spec of +/- 36 pixels a second, its the prototype that goes much faster (i checked with a video recording, it goes 36 pixels in a single frame sometimes). please check the specification and ensure that the right values are setup in the specification.

Mu bad, just modified the specs, the speed needs to be multiplied by a constant.

tested today and it seems still odd, the auto-scroll from the bottom is still slow, from the top a bit crazy.

Now it seems changed, and I guess programmed correctly. Unfortunately on my netbook there seems to be performances issue, so is still far from being smooth in it.

re-marking as fix released since the original bug was fixed, please file another one about performance along with netbook hardware information so we can assign that appropriately and track it
