It seems that this is a well-known Xrender performance problem with a lot of NVidia cards. See, for example: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=e7b3197c7aba6e25affbecdf8437d470&t=87865&page=14 Based on this, I tried installing and switching to Xgl, which made scrolling and rendering

I recently ran into similar issues with other qt4 applications, such as the Qt4 help assistant, and the Qt4 designer. For testing purposes, I tried switching back to the vesa Xorg driver, and now scrolling has become smooth as butter in the aforementioned applications on a GeForce 8600M GT. So, th

Well, now I've been testing lyx from the repository on Gutsy AMD64 with Nvidia 6600 and nvidia-glx-new as well as nvidia-glx. I can confirm this annoying behaviour. Scrolling is unacceptable slow. So it seems to be an nvidia related issue because on my Thinkpad with ati x1400 and fglrx 8.37 lyx wor

If I select some text in Lyx, hit Ctrl-C, and then mash the keyboard, it does become a tad faster - scrolling through the tutorial with PgDown takes 17 seconds instead of 22 in the latest Gutsy-installed version. However, Lyx 1.4 still runs circles around it, taking just 7.5 seconds. In the second

I have found the following upstream bugs, that seem related. In the reports some fix is suggested (e.g. _enabling_ math preview, or cutting and pasting text if the problem is in second window opened), does some of these workarounds solve your problem? In a comment in the second report there is also

I'm also seeing this problem on 7.10, with all recent updates. I'm using a 32 bit machine, but with a Nvidia geforce 5500 fx. Xorg uses over 90% in top when scrolling (I don't know if this fact is significant, but it is usually around 50% for other apps). The scrolling problem occurs on the 1.5.0

I use x86-64, so I cannot test your version. I checked src/config/.h, and the ENABLE_ASSERTIONS macro is undef'ed. So it seems that these are not to blame. I will run a full compile, just in case, sometime later when I have the time. -- lyx 1.5 scrolling unacceptably slow https://bugs.launchpad.n

Christian: the version you self-compiled should have by default assertions turned off. Can you check that in ./configure, so we are sure assertions do not have anything to do with that? -- lyx 1.5 scrolling unacceptably slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129813 You received this bug notificatio

I've tested for this issue on my productive machine on Feisty (32bit) with the latest Nvidia driver and Compiz Fusion enabled as well as disabled. Lyx was a binary package version 1.5.1 directly downloaded from www.lyx.org. Scrolling is also fast here. I hope this helps to narrow the problem down.

Update: The same thing happens with self-compiled lyx 1.5.1. With the same text area size, scrolling through the tutorial takes 8 seconds on Lyx 1.4.5.1, and 27 seconds on Lyx 1.5.1. -- lyx 1.5 scrolling unacceptably slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129813 You received this bug notification b

This is odd. Please test on your Nvidia card and report back when you get a chance. I currently use a self-compiled version of LyX 1.4, and scrolling is fast there. I will try to compile LyX 1.5 myself and see what happens. -- lyx 1.5 scrolling unacceptably slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1

Cannot confirm to. On Gutsy x86-64, Mobility Radeon X1400, fglrx (8.39.4) with Lyx 1.5 scrolling down in several documents went smooth. Will test it with my GeForce 6800 GT later, also on 64bit. But, developers please update Lyx to 1.5.1 due to several critical bugs in 1.5 (data lost and further m
