What is it that takes time? Is it LyX or image conversions? If it is the 
former, it would make sense to spend time to speed-up those. If it is 
the later, could we get away with a dummy converter that always produces 
the same image? Would that be enough for the sake of testing, or does 
one want to inspect the output?
