[KimDaBa] Speeding up scrolling

[Robert L Krawitz]

Just as an experiment, I tried deleting all low priority requests
whenever the viewport is scrolled.  Scrolling is much faster.  This
isn't entirely right, because if you scroll slowly (rather than full
pages at a time) some of the images never do get displayed, but it
suggests a way we might proceed.  The code looks like this:
