How big is your diagram? You're not animating the zoom, are you? Do you
have any figures that take a lot of time to paint? Are you using advanced
graphics? How many figures/editparts are there in your diagram?

Not intentionally. I may be, due to cut'n paste stuff I don't
entirely understand, from GEF examples, though...

I'm not sure what's advanced or not. There's the table figure, which:
- extends Figure
- has a verdtical toolbar layout holding a label and a fields figure
- has a border, a background colour and a foreground color and is opaque
(in short: it's a box with a label at the top)
The fields figure is a child of the table figure:
- extends figure
- has a flow layout
- has a border, background and foreground colours and is opaque
The fields themselves are just labels dropped into the fields figure.
> How many figures/editparts are there in your diagram?
For edit parts, the numbers are:
- 916 table edit parts
- 13020 field edit pars (children of tables)
- 542 relationship edit parts
That would make the total number of figures:
916 table figures
916 table label figures
916 fields figures
13020 labels for the fields
===========================
15768 figures total
In addition comes 542 relationship figures (which may be handled
separately...?).
Is that a lot?
