Kishore,

In my tests, NSMatrix was NOT a viable option for this - it was 
difficult for the matrix to fill the view properly and to redraw 
itself nicely if the rows and column numbers were changing, and 
especially if the cell content itself was changing. I don't think 
NSMatrix was geared toward doing something this dynamic - with 
constant changes both of the view itself and of the objects inside it.

Instead, the best solution I found was to create a basic custom view 
and do all the drawing and grid management yourself. It sounds like a 
lot of work, but it really was the best performing option I could find.

Give MUPhotoView a shot - it's at the link below. There's a couple 
bugs that need fixing - drop me an email if you want the details.
