Hello, thank you very much for this quick reply. It SOLVED my issue completely. Thumbnail view was really much faster. Even not perfect, the speed was reasonable. The issue was as you sad the images, as there are cca 60 high-res images in my document.
Just out of curriosity, wouldn't it be possible to somehow lazy load the images, so they are loaded just in case the user scrolls to them? With collpased xinclude the performance was of course perfect. I created a new View for it and made it the default. This is a perfect setup now for my users. First the document gets loaded with xinclude collapsed and if they wish to see the whole document they may choose the thumbnail view instead.
