I have been using LyX for quite a while now, mainly on Mac.
But these days for many of my documents LyX is just extremely slow.
When I scroll, LyX just slowly scrolls line by line. I can wait for long time
while it just continues to slowly scroll. And to insert math,
it can take several seconds to open the math box, and then
there is a long wait for every keystroke.

I have two Macs: a slower MacBook Air, and a one year
top of the line iMac (the absolute fastest configuration
available), and on both LyX is just behaving like a snail.

It seems to be fairly recent. I doesn't seem to be every document,
but I cannot find a clear reason for what makes a document slow,
except for length (but we are talking 5 page documents versus
one page). Perhaps one thing: many LyX comments?

Has anyone else experienced this. Any ideas what I can do?
