That makes no sense. Loading a file of 160kb or so like your January file in CodeView should be quite fast.

So my guess is you have some anti-virus software that is scanning and watching files that are created in tmp on your machine. This locks the file until the scan is done. All of Sigil's files are created in the tmp folder.

Try telling your anti-virus software to either stop scanning files in tmp or to leave Sigil alone in some fashion. To test if that is the case, try temporarily turning off your access to the internet on your machine (for safety) and then restarting in safe mode with the anti-virus disabled and check the speed.

If still slow we can rule out interference from anti-virus software, if fast, then you have the culprit.

Also how much memory do you have on this machine? QWebEngine is a memory hog so if you do not have much, Sigil will slow down.
