Probably. I was refering specifcally to clones in that case -- when you have a lot of clones, each clone has its own listener and the same work (largely parsing) is redone for each.
Even without clones, updating a complex document may take seconds. It just looks like it does something non-trivial for all reprs in the tree on each change, instead of just changing one repr.
[ By the way, I've experienced ~2 minute update times myself, even on simple files, at high enough zoom levels -- update time appears to grow superlinearly with zoom level. ]
That's entirely orthogonal to document update slowness. It's the slowness of the renderer at high zooms - a known issue ever since we switched to livarot renderer.
