Topic: WF Pro 4 : Why is it so slow?

Post title: Slow for Me, Too
I've having the same problem with WFP 4 speed. For example, I often type out entire words or phrases from the glossary before they pop up as a translation option. (In WFP 3, they popped up immediately and I just had to press enter. Saved me lots of typing time!)
When I click on an empty target segment, it takes a good 2 or 3 seconds for it to change color and become editable.
Another issue is that the shortcut offered for copying over tags from the source segment (Cntrl + Alt + Down) moves my entire computer screen around and does not affect the source segment. I can't figure out what the proper shortcut is, so for now I have to go to the " Translation" section of the ribbon, then click the >> icon at the end, then click on copy. Very inefficient for something I have to do dozens of times a day.
I'm a big WordFast Pro 3 fan and I'd like to move forward and get settled with WPF4 because there are a lot of new and good features in it, but if I find myself wasting too much time, I may just go back to WFP3.
