I checked your document. While I couldnt type fast enough, but when
backspacing through some conjuncts I typed, I could notice the sluggish
movement, as cursor goes back deleting individual characters, and breaking
the conjunct and deleting each character. On the other hand using delete key
to delete text on right side, moves little faster than backspace, since
whole conjunct gets deleted as one.
Cursor movement feels irregular because, it moves over a syllable/cluster,
otherwise speed was same as english text.
Same text when pasted into new document without much formatting was much
faster. So table formatting and adjusting alignment with image might also be
adding to the complexity.
As such we havent really tested performace of using Indic script in
document using lot of formatting. In plain text (gedit), or as simple text
in openoffice, its not that noticable, but adding more formatting, putting
text in table, along with image etc, which adds to complexity of layout, it
becomes little slow. This has to be explored further , how this can be
improved.
