Hi Jerry, I confirm that I get 89% when I am over a dense text/math region and scrolling becomes slightly slower, and jumps more. In my case, I consider this as a low inconvenience, since I can perfectly see and read the text. I agree that with Lyx, scrolling under OSX is not as fluid as in other native Cocoa applications indeed.
