Hi,

When working on a specific large document (about 50 pages as a PDF),
LyX does a very annoying thing where it freezes for about 4-5 seconds
about once a minute. It seems to happen more often when I am editing
equations. During the freeze the screen does not update when I type.
When the freeze is over whatever I typed during the freeze appears all
at once.

Here are the details of my setup:
OS: CentOS Release 6.4  / Linux Kernel 2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64
LyX version: 2.0.6

It is a powerful computer (12 Intel i7 cores and 16gb of ram), and
other applications do not freeze. When working on the same document on
my laptop (Thinkpad running Ubuntu) the freezes do not occur.

Does anyone have any idea of how to fix this problem, or at least how
to debug it? I have downloaded the source code and tried to find the
place where it gets stuck, but to no avail.

Best Regards,
David
