That's how the DG works, by design, and the main reason for using it over a collection of nested groups.
The DG will only populate rows as they are brought into view. At any given time the number of rendered rows = the number of visible rows.
I once made a media browser that allows access to 2600 images, and the DG handled it like a champ.
