I'd still like this patch to be done in a slightly cleaner way.
Currently, one can see that the special code for qt 3.2.1nc is
copied in two different file. Enrico, you should model the
ascent/descent caching code on the existing width caching code.

Go for it.
I did that, even if I still cannot see any improvement on *nix.
Anyway, the memory penalty is less than about 200 Kbytes for any
document I test it with.
With this patch LyX/Win 1.4 is again on a par with LyX/X11, if not
a bit more snappier. I would like to know how it performs on Mac.
Revised patch attached.
I've followed the instructions with bug 2900 to test this. Without
the patch, LyX/Mac seems fine -- a little slow, but not horrible.
With the patch, it seems a bit faster (though not much), and I don't
notice any negative side-effects.
This is on my relatively fast Intel Mac. I'd expect that the speed
improvements would be more dramatic on PPC Mac.
