Changing time signatures changes slurs and crescendos/diminuendos.
Hello,
I have a pretty lengthy document here and I have made a lot of changes in time signatures and that resulted in changing the position of just about every single slur and < > marking in my music. I have already gone through and deleted most of them (starts after p. 61), but I have left many of them just as an example towards the end of the document.
It also takes a very long time for text to get inserted on the "header/footer" function under "Styles". It can get to the point where there would be 5-10 seconds in between each character appearing in the header or footer boxes.

Hello, thank you for sharing this score and information.
It is a massive file indeed, it takes almost 8 minutes to load on my laptop. So I can imagine editting this file is time consuming indeed.
Once the file is loaded, memory usage of MuseScore is not extreem and CPU usage neither, though it is showing peeks.
I also tested loading with in pageview mode, but not much difference to load the score.
I do not have the Baskerville font on my system, but don't think that is the reason why loading the score takes so much time.
Here is what I can see in MuseScore at page 61/62.
I agree the postioning of the hairpins is not really good.
Any thoughts how these got changed?
What needs to happen? As I don't get that from the information provided.

There were a ton of slurs on those two pages specifically that I had already taken out. There should be better examples starting around p. 90 or 95 or so.
The only thing that changed was I started to delete some time signatures earlier in the document and it completely threw the hairpins and slurs off. I wanted to report the bug in the software because I have no idea what would need to be changed to fix that.

Do you perhaps have an earlier version of the score? One without the change you made, so a before and after version can be reported.
If you use a cloud solution to store the documents (like Google Drive, One Drive, Time Machine) you might be able to get an earlier version from that.
