adding models to the source causes full redraw of the columns about angular-deckgrid

This is the solution I implemented (I know it can be done in a more elegant way, with regard to $$addElementsToColumns function but unfortunately I did not have much time):

Deckgrid.prototype.$$onModelChange = function $$onModelChange (newModel, oldModel) {
            var self = this;
            newModel = newModel || [];
            oldModel = oldModel || [];

            var newModelOldLength = angular.copy(newModel);
            newModelOldLength.splice(oldModel.length);

            if(angular.equals(oldModel, newModelOldLength) && oldModel.length != 0){
                var elementsToAdd = angular.copy(newModel);
                elementsToAdd = elementsToAdd.splice(-(newModel.length - oldModel.length));
                self.$$addElementsToColumns(elementsToAdd);
            }else{
                self.$$createColumns();
            }
};

Deckgrid.prototype.$$addElementsToColumns = function $$addElementsToColumns (elements) {
            var self = this;

            if (!this.$$scope.layout) {
                return $log.error('angular-deckgrid: No CSS configuration found (see ' +
                                   'https://github.com/akoenig/angular-deckgrid#the-grid-configuration)');
            }

            angular.forEach(elements, function onIteration (card, index) {
                index = self.$$getTotalElements();
                var column = (index % self.$$scope.layout.columns) | 0;

                if (!self.$$scope.columns[column]) {
                    self.$$scope.columns[column] = [];
                }

                card.$index = index;
                self.$$scope.columns[column].push(card);
            });
};

Deckgrid.prototype.$$getTotalElements = function $$getTotalElements () {
        var number = 0;
        angular.forEach(this.$$scope.columns, function onIteration (value, index) {
                number += value.length;
        });
            return number;
};
