Hi Michael, Maybe. I know that org's performance improves when I narrow the buffer to just the section I am working on, when I work on long documents so the lines above and below the table may affect things. > One of my tables fluctuates around 150 rows and around 20 to 40 > columns, overall a few hundred characters wide (columns with some > history window for each row).

I have an impression that performance degrades over time in a single session. But I have no evidence for this. It's just an impression. thanks, eric -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.94.1, Org release_8.3.5-1070-g190476
