Further to my earlier email, I suspect that the slowness is due to
gradually accumulating cruft in internal data structures. Maybe not a
memory leak but conceptually similar, possibly fragmentation or lists
that accumulate stale junk.
I had my thesis open, and editing was sooooo sloooow. I created a new
document, and typing in this one I found out that editing was also just
as slow.
Hmmm, I thought, and closed my thesis. Again, editing the new document
was painfully slow!
I restarted LyX and created a new document - problem is gone. Even after
opening my thesis, problem isn't apparent. It looks like you may have to
do actual editing of an actual thesis to reproduce this! (Hence I'm sure
some of the developers are wondering what I'm on about.)
Yep. I really don't understand what could be the cause of the problem
you're describing. I'd say it's not LyX fault but perhaps some other
program that is slowing down your computer.
Abdel.
