Problems displaying a very large polygon

[Frederico Lucca]

Hello list,

I have a layer with a single polygon, but it has 131570 points. It's the
territory from brazil.
When I try to export a gif showing only a small piece, like 1/30 from the
total, this spends 30 seconds (attached).
I observe that when the coast is more irregular this is slower to export.
Other layers are very quick to export, something like 1 or 2 second.
How I can deal with this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Fred
