I suppose putting them in brances will not help as much as putting them in separate files (included by a master file). Putting them in such big branches will even worsen the performance I think... Branches and Insets in general were not really designed for big text. If you really need branches I suggest as Gunter said to put the chapters in different child documents and put the Include insets in branches in the master document. Abdel.

I am experiencing very slow reaction times when typing and deleting, as well as scrolling the document window. I have the latest debian sid installation and everything else works fine. I'm not sure it's fair to say it's been "off-loaded" somewhere else. If that is in fact the problem, then there is nothing we can do about it. Is there no solution for this, apart from moving to Lyx 2.0 (which is not an option for my large document)? Why wouldn't that be an option? I mean, we don't recommend 2.0 for serious work now, but size of document isn't a factor. rh
typing slowness with large documents
I know that this issue has come up several times in the recent past, and that its been off-loaded onto xorg/QT problems. I am experiencing very slow reaction times when typing and deleting, as well as scrolling the document window. I have the latest debian sid installation and everything else works fine. Is there no solution for this, apart from moving to Lyx 2.0 (which is not an option for my large document)? I have each chapter in a branch and I only work with one branch open at a time, but this doesn't help at all. I also have the navigation window closed, and math preview is off. Mateo.
