Welcome to the wonderful world of LaTeX pitfalls (one reason why I use LyX
despite I know LaTeX quite well).
\begin{center} ... \end{center} produce too much vertical space in floating
environments. Compare the output of centered figures in floats with
captions of LyX 1.3 (which uses these commands) to that of 1.4 or 1.5. See
corrected_env() in paragraph.C for the code.
