Asset store performance problems

The in application asset store browser is acting very slow for me, both in Unity Pro 3.5.7f6, and Unity 4.1.5 free. (Windows 7 64bit, i7 930@2.8GHz, 6Gt ram, ASUS GTX570 DirectCU II )

Loading isn’t particularly fast either, but the main problem is rendering performance. Scrolling is unresponsive and sliding animations aren’t fluid.

Also all the hover / mouse over effects are blinking… i mean while hovering cursor over categories there’s the mouse over effect with a background bar and numbers, but they disappear as soon as they appear, and won’t stay while hovering. Same problem with all the links, they blink as underlined but the underline dissappears immediately. Is this a common bug? or just on my system? Side note, with a external browser (Chrome) the asset store performance is fine and mouse over effects stay while hovering. these issues seem odd, since isn’t asset store mainly targeted to work inside unity?

Kind regards,
