I had the same problem with Libreoffice Impress and it caused me no end of hassle until I uninstalled the GTK interface. Now it's fast and responsive even with big slideshows. Only drawback is that the menus look like Windows 95.
Try running "sudo apt-get remove libreoffice-gtk*" and see if that resolves the issue on your machine. This command will remove libreoffice-gtk, libreoffice-gtk3 and libreoffice-gnome but will leave libreoffice otherwise intact. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584740 Title: Libreoffice impress hanging and high cpu on slide operations Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce: - Create a presentation in libreoffice impress, 30-100 slides with or without images - Add, copy or delete slides - On those operations LO Impress hangs a lot; sometimes 5 mins or more - Opening and saving works quick Tested on 2 different laptops, both had the same issue.
