I have just a few Qs regarding performance that I’m just curious about (not complaints, just wanting to understand).

1)   Why does inkscape respond much slower when moving grouped/multiple items via arrow keys vs mouse?

1a) Why does it take so long to regain control of objects when they’ve been moved? (once again, those grouped/multiple objects)

2)   Why does it sometimes take up to 2 mins to start responding again after moving grouped/multiple items (via KB)... longest I’ve seen by mouse is 20 seconds? (sometimes processor is pegged, other times only using 3%, but still not responsive)

3)   Why does inkscape explode in RAM so much? Basically if I have an 800k document, why would inkscape be using 133megs of RAM (not always, but if working with it for like 30mins), vs a smaller (500k) document that only uses like 40megs.

Thanks
