Another thing to try: lauch LyX with option -graphicssystem raster

This uses a different rendering path in Qt, supposedly faster.

Title:
  lyx 1.6.x impossibly slow

Status in “lyx” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lyx

  I am using lyx 1.6.1 on Ubuntu 8.10. 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. I'm
  not sure where to start in debugging this.

   apt-cache policy lyx
  lyx:
    Installed: 1.6.1-1~intrepid1
    Candidate: 1.6.1-1
