Sorry all. Here are the answers to several on and offlist questions:
Printed output is not required. The PDFs produced will be viewed online
only.
The graphics are PNGs, all imported and all stored locally. Everything
(files and graphics) are stored on my hard drive.
All are imported in multiples that allow for printing standard printing
considerations (100, 150, 200, or 300 dpi as per comments from Richard
Combs).
Brand new custom system - 16 GB RAM and 8 processors.
Thanks!

*Subject:*Very slow paging in FM 10 in graphic-heavy files
FM 10.0 (all patched and current)/Win 7, 64 -bit
I have a book with 10 chapters and some appendices. Many of the
chapters are graphic-laden, but all graphics are imported by
reference. None are copied. Over the last few months when working on
this book, I have noticed that paging through the opened chapters is
taking an increased amount of time and that the files are very slow
to refresh with the appropriate graphics displayed. I have tried the
CTRL + L trick as well as the tried and true Page Up/Page Down trick
to get the pages to refresh faster and that doesn't seem to help at
all. It's really slowing me down to try to move through the chapters
this way. If I need to get somewhere fast, I use the CTRL/G function
to go to a specific page and then hope I am w/in one or two pages of
where I want to be.
This issue just seems to have progressed and gotten worse and worse
over time, and I haven't added any more plugins/changed the setup, etc.
I was just wondering if anyone else has seen this issue/encountered
this over time with FM10.
I can't suggest a solution other than possibly defragging your disk. A
work-around, though, is to turn off the display of images (View >
Options > Graphics or Alt+V, o, Alt+I, Enter).
I use http://www.mydefrag.com/ because it doesn't just defrag, it also
optimizes the placement of files and free space on hard drives. If you
have an SSD, though, do not defrag; it's damaging to the drive without
improving performance.
HTH,
