I have investigated this a bit. The method (?) LaTeX::scanLogFile is
realy fast for me. There is no time problem.
The time was consumed in LaTeX:run with the following calls:
- head.insert(file,true);
- deplog(head);
- head.update();
Each of this calls needs 5-10 minutes on my Pentium III 800.

Ok, thank you for this hint. But I think it's not a good way to make lyx
depend on a beta library that needs Bugfixes. I will try that later, if
there is no other solution.
At the moment I am compiling lyx-1.1.6fix1 on my stable debian2.2 box
with libstdc++2.10. Maybe the problem does not occurre with this older
library. It will take some time, because of the slower cpu. I will
report afterwards.
