Hello,

this days I am going out of swap space, and didn't understand why.
What happens is that every picture in the Lyx document is increasing the
memory allocated in the X server.

Look that:

  2:03pm  up 1 day,  4:30,  3 users,  load average: 0.98, 0.76, 0.43
74 processes: 72 sleeping, 2 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  4.0% user, 17.9% system,  0.0% nice, 78.3% idle
Mem:   39008K av,  38164K used,    844K free,  15396K shrd,    632K buff
Swap:  32092K av,  29356K used,   2736K free                  5440K cached

  PID USER     PRI  NI  SIZE  RSS SHARE STAT  LIB %CPU %MEM   TIME COMMAND
 3388 root       3   0 32472  22M   768 S       0  3.4 59.8  12:53 X


I suppose that is not a bug, pictures must be stored somewhere, else it
would be too slow to reload each time you move in the lyx document. Well,
a strange thing happen, some pictures are loaded with white background,
and others with transparent backgroud.

Putting "Do not display this picture" solves my memory problems.
