I was tempted to answer your UI virtualization question
http://www.ultimatepp.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=299 81&#msg_29981

but it's best left for Daniel (unodgs).

I know you asked for a minimal learning curve but you might find it worthwhile to get to know the gridctrl source a little because once you understand it, you have the power to customise it in the future.

For the virtualization thing, you may find you can do it by overriding the Paint function and use that to trigger cell updates. You might want to limit the rate that you update cells (not sure), but I guess you could use a timer.
