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.

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.

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. JMarc
