Many users have reported good success, and it works well for me too.
Please let me know if it doesn't work for you.

Since those overlays can be reused when re-visiting the parts of the
buffer they were created for, this can speed things up since it avoids
re-creation of overlays and intermediate garbage collection.

Line numbers should also be updated after scrolling, M-x goto-line and
many other functions that change the visible portion. The current
method is more reliable and works, I hope, sufficiently well.

Implemented in version 0.9b, available from the given link.
