Well, it doesn't seems bad at all! :-) Have you tried other SVG
implementations? Also, are you using latest release for both Batik and
Open office?

Do you mean "adding it twice" as in "adding the document in two
distinct panes"? If so, then I believe this is expected... To avoid
the duplication, you had to create a single Batik engine and share it
in both panes. Although probably this is possible, I'm not familiar
about how to accomplish this...

Memory usage will depend on SVG contents. Advanced features like
gradients, animation, scripting, etc. can (potentially) become
memory-hungry. Can you attach the file or post it somewhere so one can
take a look and suggest something? Also, I'd suggest posting the
original document also - this way, one can try to figure if this is a
conversion tool issue (unoptimized SVG being generated, maybe).
Finally, please add version information for both OpenOffice and Batik
so one can understand the context. ;-)

Hope this helps,
