[scribus] Speeding up Scribus WinXP

[Richard]

Hello everyone, hello Simone, there is a not so long time since i am not 
using Scribus (or anything else) but i must say i'm very pleased on 
Scribus performance.
Well, there is a small trick i have found to improve Scribus response 
time, and it's disabling color management, because it's not necessary 
all the time, and i just enabled it when going to export my documents 
for printing, then disabled again.
Give that a try, and then tell us how about.

Best regards.

Richard Acosta.
