That's strange. I am not sure why this should happen. Maybe there is a

strain on the system. I'd surely like to get my hands wet on one of those

files... An excerpt showing the slowdown would be helpful. In other cases, I

do not see how to circumvent or fix the issue.

Can you confirm that reformatting the document is faster with the option

enabled?

Considering the fact that I live in The Netherlands, this would probably be

a no-go, sorry :-)
