A possible explanation for this.
For each keystroke, updateMacros() is called, which calls
Ouch!
Isn't this something that is necessary only if you're actually dealing
with a macro? (making one, or filling in parameters)? If so, perhaps
check that first and just return if there is nothing macroish to do?
InsetInclude::loadIfNeeded(), which then calls
theBufferList::getBuffer(). This function iterates over all loaded
buffers and if the wanted file is not loaded yet it will be loaded.
I have a hard time understanding why any kind of filesystem check
might be necessary on _each keystroke_. Move the cursor into a
file-backed inset - sure. But not otherwise? The main LyX job is
typing text and that ought to work with a minimum of per-keystroke
checks. I guess this behaviour is unintentional.
Last time I touched that part, the full updateLabel() call was done only
when a new section or caption was created, not with each keystroke. Even
when modifying a section, only the relevant toc item was changed.
If this has changed, this means that there's a superfluous additional
call somewhere.
