Visio 2013 VERY slow

I upgraded to Visio 2013. I am using the standard detailed networking template. After adding a few items, Visio has gotten so slow its almost unusable. WWhen I move icons it takes 3-5 seconds to give me back control. ITS terrible. I have a Thinkpad T510 with a system score of 6.9's across the board and one 4.9, so I highly doubt its that. All other applications scream. I tried disabling hardware accelleration and updating my video driver which did nothing.

Like visio 2013, but sad the performance is so bad...any suggestions?

    I am having the same issue,  Has this been resolved?  Super annoying.  I would not even think of developing anything in 2013.  I still do all my development in 2010 and only us 2013 on my surface when I am in a remote location (FYI: pan and zoom don't work correctly regardless of mouse or touch screen use).  Funny thing is that all need to do is pan and zoom.... nothing else...

    Its always worth checking the 'auto-save' was not kicking in making the pan/zoom appear slow.

    When in fact the files are being saved in the background.

    While the issues you've listed are also valid concerns.  They're not related to the pan/zoom issue originally posted in this thread.

    I was theorizing that the animation might extend to actions like zooming and moving shapes. Apparently not. Oh well, it was worth a try.

    But effect related to this topic is not related on delayed responce while typing, it happens on zoom in/out and shapes move inside draw.

    Tried all of your suggested fixes via regedit and Performance Settings - nothing helped, still slow.
