A really strange test:
I compiled LyX, ran it, and couldn't type fast.
If I press down 10 keyboard keys at the same time, then I get
instant response (10 lowercase letters) in xterm. LyX outputs the
characters one by one! I could type a little faster than LyX writing
"test" over and over, a good touch typist would be much worse off.
And this is not a case of LyX wasting the processor on anything,
the load was near zero. LyX didn't try - it was as if it slept a little
between each letter appearing on screen. Very strange.
I configured this way:
../lyx-devel/configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-frontend=qt4
--with-gnu-ld --enable-optimization=-Os --disable-stdlib-debug
--disable-pch --without-included-boost --without-included-gettext
I use most of these options all the time, "without included gettext" was the
only new one. Just trying to maximize memory sharing here.
