PDF viewer on intel Macs
I am using a quite powerful 2019 Intel iMac (64GB RAM, internal SSD, 3.7GHz 6 core i5.
The scrolling through the PDF is extremely slow. Moving up/down with the keyboard is not that bad.
Text highlighting. When you start dragging for selecting a text fragment, it takes some seconds before the selected text shows up.
Is there anything I can do to to speed it up?
Zotero 7.0.15
Mac OS 15.5

2) Does it occur with all PDF files?
3) In Settings → Advanced → Config Editor, is the layers.acceleration.disabled value set to true or false?
2) No. A small number of files is not affected. My PDFs are all scientific papers downloaded from arXiv or from the website of the publishers. I cannot find any pattern in the slow down: it does not depend on the length, publisher, etc.
3) It was set to false. Switching to true does not solve the issue.
Thank you for your answer.
