One simple question: did you enable the "instant preview" of math formulas? Its a time sink too. Also the auto-completion should be off on less powerfull (and power hungry) computers - but this is more an issue editing delays rather than loadup. Also, the source view takes time to compute - turn off if not needed or disable the auto-update. > It makes me trying to compile lyx-1.5 in squeeze, with no success (i'm a > newbie in compiling). Actually, LyX 1.6 works even reasonably on my OLPC laptop (running Debian from a SD card), I would not go back to 1.5, Günter
