Slow screen redraw when I click playhead and zoom out

Question

The arrange mode is slow to redraw when I click the playhead and zoom out. The slider thingy at the bottom of the screen works totally fast like normal. I just upgraded to Logic 9. Might this be a known problem or is it coincidental? Any tips?

Thanks for your reply.
I am using Logic 9.1.1. on Snow Leopard. Upon installing Logic 9 recently, I noticed that the seemless screen redraws ( from extreme close up to extreme zoom out) takes over five separate attempts. it's like there's only so much video power to do it one shot like I used to.
To be clear, let's say I'm very zoomed into a region editing an vocal comp track. Then I want to zoom out to see the whole project from start to finish. I click the playhead in the global tracks area. Then I push up and it shrinks the project to fit the screen. The problem is that it only goes so far before I have to release the mouse where it is and then try another run at it.
Here's a self-answer:
My feeling is that Logic has made it a more exacting science of how to manipulate the zoom in and out with the playhead. I actually feel it's faster now, you just have to stay within certain limits and not take your mouse and go too far up into the shorcuts area like I was used to in Logic 8. You have to stay within the global tracks area and your horizontal movements will be very fast actually and very smooth.
