Working with an 8 1/2" x 11" document, with only a few layers (4-5),
sometimes moviing an object on a layer, or giving an effect, etc .. takes
FOREVER. It's very frustrating!

First, check your system event log for errors - you may find something
obvious.

Assuming there are no errors, what is the resolution in pixels per inch of
your document? If you are not seeing this problem as severely with smaller
images, or with images with fewer layers, I suggest bumping your RAM up to 2
gig.

Memory is one of the better bargains out there these days.
