Hi Tim,

Thanks for testing the beta version. I can't reproduce that issue. Do you think 
you could make a screencast and post it so we could see how it slows down? 
After the issue occurs, if you take your finger off and wait a second, and then 
start typing is it back to normal (until you trigger the issue)? Or once it 
happens it is slow typing from there on out?

Hi Scott,

Here’s a video showing how it slows down
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/jtfm92l11orb9254xsz5z/Screen-Recording-2023-11-14-at-7.50.08-AM.mov?rlkey=fzk7aaycqabgul55ipun4ste5=0

I don’t experience this issue on any other application, including Word or 
Overleaf.

Thanks again

Tim

Thanks, that screencast is very helpful.

Another follow-up question. If you save the document and reopen it, then
are things faster (at the beginning before the problem is triggered
again)? I'm trying to figure out whether the problem is due to the
number of characters you've typed versus the number of characters
present in the document.

Also, can you copy/paste the information in LyX > About ?

Hi Scott,

Saving and reopening doesn’t change anything in behavior.

Version 2.4.0~beta5 (August 31, 2023)
Qt Version (run-time): 5.15.10 on platform cocoa
Qt Version (compile-time): 5.15.10
OS Version (run-time): macOS 12.4
Python detected: python3 -tt


What happen when you look at activity monitor while performance is bad? 
Do you see programs using cpu, or only LyX?

Thank you Stephan for the input.

No spellcheck on the fly doesn’t change matters.

I’m using MacOS 12.4

I’m somewhat wondering if it’s possible to simply revert to an older 
form of LyX. My needs and expectations are not that high. Thought kLyX 
0.12 was a life-changing miracle back in 2000.


I am not sure whether the issue is the form of LyX or some program on 
your machine that interferes with LyX. Did you try running with activity 
monitor to see whether another process eats CPU cycles at the time where 
LyX is sluggish?


Otherwise, to diagnose this you would need to
1/ get a binary with debug information from stephan (I do not know how 
easy it is for him)

2/ install xcode (I do not know how easy it is for you)
3/ run LyX together with the profiler "Instruments"
4/ send the output back to the list.

Another solution is to export your file(s) to an ancient LyX format and 
use this ancient version that is presumably faster, if this is your wish.
