What does "slowly" mean?
It means that when the compiled PDF document reaches a page with the large data image it sits there while the image appears. I've not timed it but it's much longer than displaying a new page with text or smaller images.
One could try the "draft" option (of graphicx) which should speed things up until the production runs.
Regardless of a 'draft' image loading more quickly that's not what readers use.
For my big handbook (which takes 110 seconds to compile (70 on the M1)) I have split this into child documents which compile individually within 10 to 15 seconds.
How about loading a PDF image that's 3,704,503 bytes in size while reading your big handbook? Rich -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
