Threads, side processes seem to be an overhaul to lyx... maybe we can try to make use of idle time? What would be the best way to determine 'idle time' and make use of it? I notice that both frontend (qt and xforms) have a timer for idle time, will it be a good idea to do something like "if idle >5seconds, let Loader load some bitmaps?" -- Bo Peng
