Slow loading is a real problem, not just on Windows but also on Linux.  It make
autosaving even a greater issue.

To explain, this is being dicussed on the users mail list and I decided to run
my own tests.  I created a very large spreadsheet to test with.  The file sized
are in the 20M (ods).

20M Oct 27 12:13 Large_file_calc_test.ods
52M Oct 27 13:15 Large_file_calc_test.xls

Here are timing tests that I did. 

Problems.
Gnumeric doesn't support ODF spreadsheets.
KSpread says it will open ODF spreadsheets but crashes on every 
attempt to open the file.

        Gnumeric      OOo     Excel Native  Excel.ooo.export
Recalc      17.35   1:24.60     >1s           1:09.73
Save      2:21.48   4:32.48    17.65            17.73
Save as  14:35.15   2:40.98     7.64          2:37.22
Open        11.28   2:47.98    10.27          3:58.45

Also this topic came up on /. today.

 OpenOffice Bloated?

Note, in Linux.  A recent kernel upgrade sped things up to the above timings. 
It was much slower using the same spreadsheet a few days ago.  This at least an
improvement.

I understand that there is going to be a tradeoff in the converting from ODS to
the binary that is necessary to work but there must be a way of speeding this
process up.  The slashdot article posts two links that go into even further
issues of optimization problems.

If possible add Linux to the OS or I can create a new issue to cover Linux.
