Title:
  Ubuntu Software Center is very slow

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu software center in the Maverick update become a very slow program.
  For some, it has been slow since Lucid, for others it started with Maverick.

  Seems like all operations are terribly slow.
  Installing is the worst one, and is not just slow, the interface does not 
updates correctly.
  The description of any package gets very slow, and when installing by this 
screen, the installation never finishes (or just don't update the status), 
going back one level, it stills says Install button, reselecting it it updates 
to Remove button.
  GDebi is much faster in everything, a comparison of opening a package:

  software-center: 34 secondes
  GDebi: 10 secondes

  It takes a long time to start. This is really bad and must be solved
  if it is wanted to be used as a gdebi replacement.

  Navigating is insanely slow. Not only that takes a long time to
  display software lists, but also when scrolling it lags a lot: You
  scroll, you stop moving the scroll wheel and keeps on scrolling a few
  seconds.

  When you click install, it freezes a few seconds (window turns grey),
  or it just does nothing for a few seconds, until it is added to the
  queue.

  There is an attached video so that everyone can see.

  Thank you
