Bad Performance While Moving Text / Large Number of Nodes

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape
  • create something with alot of nodes, or text
  • try to drag it around

What happened?

The preview updates alot slower than the non beta version, Inkscape 0.92.4 (5da689c313, 2019-01-14), making it hard to move stuff to the desired location. transform_slow.svg_-_Inkscape_2019-11-25_21-09-55 transform_slow.svg_-_Inkscape_2019-11-25_21-11-25 (A kind-of workaround is to turn the show outlines while transfoming option on)
