So any help is appreciated. But the advice to turn instant preview off
is equivalent to saying "quit LyX".
Then you can try:
* Use an older version of LyX (1.3.7 ?)
* Split your document into several parts
hope any of this helps.

PS. It'd be even better if you could help us discover *why* it's so slow
so that it can be fixed, but unfortunately I don't have any ideas on this.
If you are interested in helping, you could however contact the
developers' list and ask if there's any kind of debugging information you
can give them.
lyx-devel <AT> lists.lyx.org
I would be happy to help with finding the bug, thats why I send a copy
of this to the devel-list.
Splitting the document into parts would only be a crutch, since I often
need to manage references
to earlier theorems, to equation numbers, etc..
I could imagine a feature like "folding away" a section, so the heading
would be shown but the
section is only opened when you double-click on the section heading.
Another possibility, I could imagine, is making the generated pngs
resident, so they need not be
generated again when I start lyx with the same document next time. One
problem, however, is
that I am working on the same document at work during the day, and at
home in the evening.
(By the way, the reported behaviour is the same on both computers. It
could not only be faulted
to csrssexe, since during the 3.5 min. of "LyX not responding" the
process manager only credits
25% to csrss.exe and 75% to lyx.exe )
I am indeed considering reinstalling some old version of LyX, although
this is like withdrawing my
chips from LyX ...
