Delay in NetBackup web UI when adding or removing columns in Catalog area

In the Catalog area of the web UI, you can add or remove columns from the table of images. The more images that are displayed, the longer it takes for the interface to refresh if you add or remove columns. This issue will be fixed in an upcoming release.
