I'm running Ubuntu 17.04 with the 375.66 driver and GeForce 1080. LyX's performance on my machine is very bad, exactly as described above. Scrolling and typing make the Xorg process use 100% CPU.
I'd be happy to help by testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to lyx in Ubuntu.

This program used to be my do- everything software, but it has become unusably slow. That is, keystrokes are even delayed in displaying when I type. The rest of the system is fine, and LyX didn't used to have such a problem.
