------- Additional comments from [email protected] Fri Jan 9 18:09:12 +0000 2009 ------- My environment: + Ubuntu 8.04.1 LTS + OpenOffice 1:2.4.1-1ubuntu2.1 + LTSP Environment ---- Working in OpenOffice Impress/Presentation is fine until starting "Slide Show", which caches excessive amounts of pixmap data to thin-client memory. This is bad because thin clients generally have very little amount of RAM (64-128MB is typical), and when all of the RAM is exhausted by something like excessive pixmap memory usage, the session simply crashes outright, causing data loss. Observe my pixmap usage (via 'xrestop') of ~5MB upon simply launching a 1-slide presentation file: --- 3e00000 50 84 1 160 62 5495K 5K 5501K 18330 POWER POINT - OpenOffice.org Impress --- Now observe pixmap memory usage of ~52MB upon launching "Slide Show -> Slide Show": --- 3e00000 56 100 1 230 73 52767K 6K 52773K 18330 POWER POINT - OpenOffice.org Impress --- A Jump of more than 50MB by simply launching the presentation slideshow shouldn't happen. Thank you for any help on this, the children at my schools will thank you! Sincerely, Jordan/Lns P.S.
