Updated, but i still can't control the "floating" bar in the bottom of manage presets, it´s having it´s own will of where to go, when i try to move around in the presets.
 
Seems a bit quicker than 1.03.07 was with the new 10 firmware.

Still, though, it re-reads the entire list of preset names fairly frequently.

This presets list (and the cabs list, too, TBH) seems like an application where caching them, with the ability to expire just the one that was updated, could maybe save some re-reading time. The CMS I work with has a module that interacts with cached pages and partials stored by memcached in server memory, so that when some piece of content is updated, only the updated item's cache entry is expired, and just that gets re-cached when next requested. This saves a ton of time serving the pages, as it's usually cached in RAM, so it doesn't even need to wake up the file system, much less consult with the pile of code that assembled the cached bit(s) in the first place.

I don't know from Adam how AxeEdit works internally, or what language it's written in, but how it behaves sure resembles how my CMS and servers behave when the caches aren't primed or are not working effectively.
