Entries are just much, much more complicated. Creating 4000 edit widgets is always going to be slow. What you need to do is use a treeview instead, and have a editable as a cell renderer. Now it will display like a label (it should be even quicker than the label case), but when you click on an item, it will turn into an edit widget for the time that you are using it.
