I never make scores as large as those discussed here but I was curious about the problem of slowing.
I made a dummy score of 500 measures, 10 staffs, two layers per staff, measures filled with a mixture of note durations down to sixteenths, a moderate number of articulations. I used MassMover to copy the whole thing and then inserted it all in front of the first measure thereby doubling the file. This took less than two minutes. Deleting a measure near the front took 12 seconds. Saving the whole 1000 measures took about ten seconds - 2,175KB. I noticed no change in the behavior of Speedy Entry. Putting in extra notes and having them moved from measure to measure through all 500 pages took 5 seconds. This was all done in both Scroll View and Page View. Auto Music Spacing was off.
