With last night's 1.5.0 and on a page not linked
to others activating the story editor can take
half a minute. This is text taken from another
document. The other document is 208 pages and I
have allowed for 300 pages because the Scribus
version is  on a smaller page dimension.
Right now there are no graphics, just pure text.

I can't live with this slowness. I will
start all over with 1.4.5.

I understand that 1.5.0 is a work in progress.
But if/when the slowness is cured it would be nice
if someone would post a notice to that effect.
