First, the slowness is coming during the update of the standard

during the theClipboard().empty() check. So I did this:
bool GuiClipboard::empty() const
{
// We need to check both the plaintext and the LyX version of the
// clipboard. The plaintext version is empty if the LyX version
// contains only one inset, and the LyX version is empry if the
// clipboard does not come from LyX.
QTime t = QTime::currentTime();
bool b = !qApp->clipboard()->text(QClipboard::Clipboard).isEmpty();
lyxerr << "Checking emptiness took " << t.restart() << std::endl;
if (b)
return false;
return !hasLyXContents();
}
and I'm getting times on the order of 125ms just for that one call.
Should be easy to solve.
Can you fix this, Abdel? Unfortunately, I do not have time now, as I'd
have to learn a lot about this code before I'd know what to do, and I
have a lecture to give next weekend at a big conference. It would be
really, really nice if a fix could be included in 1.5.2. I have been
thinking I need to go back to using 1.4.5.1 myself, this gets so bad. I
mean, a limit of six characters a second can make things really, really
slow.
