#21472 is also related.
If a layer with labels is "heavy" and rendering it takes significant amount of time, then it is very difficult to edit any other layer because of refreshes.

This is because the labelling is generated for the entire map, not layer by layer. So labels from another layer can change the position of labels in every other labelled layer (due to collision avoidance).
If you toggle any labelled layer, all remaining labelled layers need to be completely refreshed in order to calculate new positions of the remaining map labels.
There may be particular corner cases where this can be avoided, but in general I do not see any way to avoid this.

But vectors and rasters are rendered independently of lables. Results can be cashed. So only lables colud be redrawn on canvas refresh.
