... and is it still necessary? I'm referring to the file saving introduced with LyX 2.1.1 to cope with the "tabular" bug which hadn't been diagnosed at that stage.

I use PSTricks in an ERT inset in LyX. The View other formats and Update other formats buttons provide a convenient way of updating a drawing, which inevitably involves a succession of iterations as elements of the the diagram are nudged into position. However, it seems to me now, with LyX 2.1.2, that there is a noticeable lag between clicking the View or Update button and the execution of the command, which I don't recall in the past.

Is there a file save before the updating? And is it necessary now? Or could it optionally be turned off (for instance, by virtuous types who specify a back-up directory)? With an iterative process like working on a drawing, the performance lag becomes irritating.
