Re: Fwd: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice-Base CPU usage
Hi :) Ahah, thanks Jay. I was hoping that HSql only dipped into using java for a few things. So, Don needs to have that java box ticked all the time he uses Base and can only avoid it when not using Base at all. Is it possible to edit short-cuts and stuff so that opening Base will enable java but opening java wont? I think it might be possible in GnuLinux by having 2 different short-cuts on the desktop or in the taskbar/panel. regards from Tom :) --- On Sun, 18/9/11, planas jsloz...@gmail.com wrote: From: planas jsloz...@gmail.com Subject: Re: Fwd: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice-Base CPU usage To: users@global.libreoffice.org Date: Sunday, 18 September, 2011, 6:58 Hi, On Sat, 2011-09-17 at 23:30 +0100, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Thanks Don.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice-Base CPU usage
Hi :) Were you using OpenJdk before? Could you test-drive the _20 and _22 to see if they are as good as the _21? A few people say that the _20 or _22 are a huge improvement on things like the _24 or onwards. I am trying to convince someone to try the _21 but he is happy enough with the _20 and thinks there wont be much better than that. Don't worry if you don't have time!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice-Base CPU usage
Hi :) Java is an unusual problem for LibreOffice. Most of the apps have either already moved away from it or are moving away fast. Java and OpenJdk are owned by Oracle. Do we have any confidence in them fixing things so that their products work better for LibreOffice? Currently the newer the release of Java the more problems there seems to be in using it in LibreOffice. I don't think there was a bug-report. There are almost no devs working on Base so posting a bug-report is not likely to yield any positive results for months, maybe years. Also if devs do start working on Base it would be good to follow the rest of the project away from java. Inevitably devs are going to have to start by fixing bugs but any work they do to fix problems with java will have been a bit of a waste of time after java is written out. It's NOT ideal for LO but we have to deal with things as they are rather than how we would like them to be. We can temporarily work-around problems by using the _21 (or _20 or _22) and by trying to encourage people to develop Base's code. The SC wants to sitwait to see if anyone happens to notice that working on Base might be a rewarding challenge. When pushed they thought it might be nice to make a questionnaire to send to people who don't need a database program to ask them what they want from a database.

Hi :) Thanks Don. I think you might be able to convert/export/migrate your back-end to a different one. I don't think you have to stick with HSql. I'm not sure if it's possible to remove java dependence when using HSql, i thought it was but i could be wrong.

Re: Fwd: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice-Base CPU usage
Hi Tom, There is an old saying - if it ain't broke, don't fix it. The thing I dislike most about Base is to have to open three windows to get to my form in the database. Some time ago I left a post on an Open Office forum asking if there was a way to set up a macro so I could do it in one click. There were never any replies. With Paradox or Access I was able to go to the form by just opening the program. But what I really like about Base is I just have 1 file to copy to keep my database updated on my three other computers. When I say if it ain't broken, don't fix it, I've never had one issue using Base. It has worked very well for me over a long period (7 or 8 years) of time. There are few programs I've ever used that have had that kind of dependability. Don On 09/17/2011 06:30 PM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Thanks Don.

Hi All, Base worked well for me in Windows since it was created while I was running Windows, and for two years in Ubuntu until the Java for Linux was updated from 1.6.0_22 to 1.6.0_24 last spring. At that point Base became almost unusable. In a database with 2500 records, instead of going from the first record to the last record in about 1 second, the time became 25 to 30 seconds. When I looked at CPU usage. 1 core would be running at 100% during this time. Java 1.6.0_26 then came out, and the same problem existed. About 5 weeks ago someone started a thread titled something like Base runs unacceptably slowly. One person left a post stating that in Linux you can have more than one version of Java installed at the same time and left the following instructions: Overview: 1. Download the JRE archive (approx. 20 mb) 2. Extract in /tmp 3. as root, copy the extracted directory to /usr/lib/jvm 4. set this JRE as the JRE of choice in LO (ToolsOptionsJava) 5. Exit LO restart Instructions: 1.Download jre-6u21-linux-i586.bin (for i386) or jre-6u21-linux-x64.bin for x86_64 from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html#jre-6u21-b07-oth-JPR JRE archive at ORACLE . Save to /tmp . Open Terminal and enter cd /tmp. Then do the following commands: 2.run it using: sh jre-6u21-linux-i586.bin . The JRE is now extracted to /tmp/jre1.6.0_21/ 3. copy to /usr/lib/jvm sudo cp -a jre1.6.0_21/ /usr/lib/jvm 4. Exit restart office. In ToolsOptionsJava, choose 1.6.0_21. Exit restart office 5. Load you Base file compare the speed. If you want to remove it simply set the JRE back to the old one in ToolsOptionsJava sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/jvm/jre1.6.0_21/ This does not replace your current Java install in your browsers, or even show up in synaptic package manager. But it does show up as being available for LibreOffice. This solved my problem totally. 1.6.0_21 works very fast with Base. I haven't worried about security problems since the browsers are using the current versions, there isn't any plugin installed for 1.6.0_21 for the browsers, and also since it doesn't show up in synaptic. Does that mean there are not any risks? I don't know, but I would think any risk would be minimal. The reason I think this might be your problem is because you have the same issue with CPU usage that I did.

When I then save LO-Base, CPU-usage is normal again (for a while!). I don't really know what causes this behaviour, could it have to to with backup copy creation? I find an aweful lot of backup files in /home/rainermusik/.libreoffice/3/user/backup. All of them have a filename something like rmodbc.odb_9777.odb and are of 0 (zero) size. I wonder what's wrong.
