Combo box question

It seems like the AWT Choice class is slow when inserting items into the
combo box list. From experimenting with 'addItem', it takes an average of
20ms to add 1 single item. This is to slow when we are handling more than
400 items. This results in slow GUI updates which ends up thinking this is
not a very 'attracktiv' application.
Doing the same operation on a listbox seems to work ok. (Typical 1ms each
item).

Is there any way we can work around this problem, or will it be solved in
the next release (jdk 1.2) ?
How about Swing? Does it handle Combo boxes any better?

Thank's.

Geir.
