Hi all,
compared to LyX 1.3.6 which I used before, the new version is _quite_
slow for me in rendering documents with a fair amount of graphics and
formulas (talking about a 10page document with maybe 15 200K-eps-files)
and some formulas.
Already when opening the document, the CPU load goes to maximum, and LyX
into "not responding" (Spinball) mode for a couple of seconds. Scrolling
in the document becomes painfull, as it takes forever, with spinballs
inbetween.
LyX 1.4.0 for Mac on PB G4 (1,5GHz, 1GB RAM), fully patched Tiger.
It seems to me as if the scheduling for rendering the formulas and
generating the graphic-previews was changed, with a side effect of
decreasing responsiveness.
I know that all this heavily depends on many external programms (I
updated Fink recently). So: anybody else observing this? Ideas how to
speed it up again?
I like the new features in 1.4 (!!!), so I wouldn't be happy to move
back again...
/Konrad
