Public bug reported:

(This is a feature request)
When working with high quality source files, the user interface gets slow and hard to use. Previews are slow, sometimes almost unusable and the application may even crash as a result.

A great feature would be if one could convert the source files to some
nice light "working format" (lower quality, smaller frame sizes etc), so
that timeline editing goes fast and easy, and that one, when it is time
for rendering, could choose to use the original files so that the
rendered video becomes high quality.
