Using Sigil 0.9.2 on Win 10. My system disk is a 256MiB Toshiba SSD. My CPU is Intel Core i5 650 @ 3.20GHz Clarkdale and I have 6GB of DDR3 RAM - no over-clocking.
Is there anything I can do to make traversing the spell check word list with the keyboard arrow keys more responsive? I often overshoot by hitting down arrow too many times - then I have to sit back and wait until catches up.
I tried dismissing preview and other windows to no avail.
The size of the epub seems immaterial, I can't discern any difference between a 5000 word epub with single file, and a 300,000 word epub with 30+ files. Nor does the size of the word list seem to matter. I mistakenly thought it was a 0.9 versus 0.8 issue, so I installed 0.8.6 32 bit, made no difference. So it's me becoming less tolerant of sluggish response, and more averse to using the mouse.
FWIW the calibre editor is similarly sluggish.
If there's nothing I can do, then is there anything 'you' can do?
It would appear the delay is caused by the code view window having to 'navigate' to the 'selected' word in the xhtml files. I'd be happy to forgo that happening automatically via a preference, providing there was a kb short and/or context menu to do it manually - most of the time I don't need it.
