I managed to get the bug back - not sure why its intermittent.  I've been
playing with it for hours and if I bang away like a mad monkey for 5 or 6
lines, then it enters an "extra-slow" mode where it misses keypresses.  I'm
guessing some sort of race condition.  Its easier to trigger when the
system is busiest and acting slow.  But Copy To Texture is still the best
bet.  It seemed like setting graphicssystem to raster made things worse.

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.
