Re: [Bug 353449] Re: lyx 1.6.x impossibly slow

 

Honestly, I have no idea what Copy To Texture was set to before I killed
the proprietary driver.  I could never see a difference turning it on
before.  But, trying to get rid of the driver lost OpenGL until I fixed it,
and that made Compiz turn off half a dozen plugins.  So - who knows how
things worked before.

I have no problem leaving it on.   I think its slower to have on if you are
low on RAM maybe - and I have 8GB - 7.2GB after the on-board video (its a
laptop) steals some, or maybe its a software workaround for texture-size
limitations?   I dunno.

Of course, the next guy may get totally different performance with these
settings :)  It may not be as fast as the proprietary drivers, but its
close enough.

Title:
  lyx 1.6.x impossibly slow

  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.
