Unfortunately, that is not a solution for my problem. When I wrote "updating" I meant "refreshing". I just tested it again. I have a layout with 12 pages and 33 different maps, each showing a different view of my mapping project. The individual maps show 3 different map themes. Switching from map themes to lock layers doesn't change the outcome. Just opening this layout freezes QGIS for more than 5 minutes. Just scrolling through the 12 pages is glacially slow, moving an item is choppy, I need to select it and press the mouse button for half a minute before I can start to move it. Then another scroll or zoom in the layout will cause another refresh and another long wait. So far I haven't found a way to turn of the refresh. It would be sufficient for QGIS to just cache a static low resolution image of the individual map's content and only refresh it, when I change the view or manually refresh. In it's current state it's unusable for me and I need to come up with a workaround for my upcoming 10 similar projects.
