LyX 1.5 was basically performing the same with both Qt3/Win and Qt4/Win. So, from what you say, its poor performance is related to something that is being done differently with respect to 1.3. Indeed, even using Qt/X11, scrolling of the document attached to bug 2900 is difficult in 1.4 and 1.5, as opposed to 1.3, where there is no problem. -- Enrico
