Very long lag with scenes with large textures.

This is a problem that I have had for quite some time, whenever I'm working with textures say larger than 8k every change I make in the node graph takes 1 second or more to respond, I believe I once read Aoktar say something about this, it was related with the material preview (I think). Now is there any workflow around this? a hidden setting to speed this up :( ? I also want to point out that I only have one card (gtx980) and I was wondering if having more than one will help me solve this issue :(

Thanks in advance.

Opengl+material previews are obviously taking big time with large textures. Try to disable these or use smaller textures.

Yes! You know I was checking the octane settings over and over again even before posting this and found nothing about 'material preview' or 'opengl preview' but then I thought about going to the live viewer itself and damn! there it was, now I can edit the materials really smoothly, thank you man!
