It is not trivial for me either. So when I read your message I thought
you might be on something and I kept the message to double check it
later. And I did not do it until now.

Abdelrazak> Besides, are you sure that this will work everywhere? 

I see no reason it would not work. If you want to check you could add
a lyxerr statement everytime a new QLFontInfo has to be created. I
think you will see by yourself what happens.

This is indeed strange.

As far as I understand LyX/Mac is sluggish with qt3 and nearly
unusable with qt4. So optimization will help everywhere. 

I keep thinking there has to be a costly mistake in the qt frontend,
but I have ever been able to put my finger on it.
