1. new document 2. output font set to Xetex/SBL-Hebrew 3. main document language set to English 4. paste Hebrew text beachball 5. set pasted text to language Hebrew beachball 6. paste English text beachball 7. set English text to language English beachball 7. scrolling beachball then quite slow scrolling 8. resize window, short beachball 9. pasting the same English block again beachball 10 pasting English block again beachball or delay (delay is ~ for 2-3 seconds) It seems to occur right after the clipboard buffer gets pasted into the editor buffer / LyX's system. Source of the text was OSHB sword module copied from Alkitab. (i.e. I do not know if that has problems on its own) But it seems to be an unproblematic block of characters in other Mac-applications (speed-wise). greetings Mike
