Hum... That's what I feared. We have eliminated all important

There's maybe some Mac specific settings that we should set to speed up
things. Maybe limit the number of colors to 256 or something like
that...
Don't forget that Bennet is using a self compiled qt, and that he
links LyX
statically against it, so all Mac users use the very same qt library. If
we are lucky there is only a problem how his qt library was compiled, and
resolving that would give a nice speedup.
Is there no official binary qt release from trolltec for OS X?
Not that I know of ... so let's hope the former is the case.
It's hidden on their ftp server, try this:
ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/qt-mac-opensource-4.2.1.dmg
