I wrote a long and complex book in TeXmacs (with many images) and when the length became several hundred pages I found that I needed workarounds to avoid this problem. Since I finished the book in 2003, both processor speeds and TeXmacs itself have improved. However, my experience might still be worth mentioning. I found the advantages of using TeXmacs far outweighed this inconvenience. I worked on the document chapter by chapter, pasting each into a long document. I could still edit the long document, but if I had any big revisions to make I would rewrite a chapter in a second file due to the speed problem. Cross-referencing required special attention this way, however, and for that, Joris had an important remark to make.
