Slow handling of objects in very large pictures

Slow handling of objects in very large pictures

when editing elements in large (1.000.000.000 pixel x 1.000.000.000 pixel) pictures, there is no immediate response. What is causing this and what can I do?

Drawing the grid with such large picture is actually what is causing the higher CPU load and the slight delay at drawing / moving elements. If you choose not to display the grid, (you can still use it though) the reaction will be immediate again.
