Redrawing the screen seems to fail, in the sense that subsequent sentences are overlapping (showing only half of one of them) I cannot produce a screenshot, because the process consumes more than 50% cpu. To describe what happens, imagine a scroll of half a page or so: it start the scroll, hampers on redrawing the bottom lines (when scrolling down), then finishes after about 10 seconds with >50% cpu activity. When it reaches its 'destination', it restarts from the beginning (top) and show the same behaviour several times. I have this problem with a word .doc file and adding comments to text, but I do not know if this is related. I have switched off the 'java' option in the preferences (having read about that solving the problem somewhere), but that doesn't help. closing and reopening the document resolves the problem: fast response to scrolling the mouse.
