Hi Andrew, we had a similar report recently about high CPU usage that turned out to be a troublesome extension rather than LibreOffice itself:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1825513 Do you have any additional extensions installed? If you do, please disable them and let us know if the problem goes away. Thank you! ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/1828294 Title: 100% CPU utilization Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS Release: 16.04 libreoffice writer and/or calc Version: 5.1.6.2 Build ID: 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial6 CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Linux 4.15; UI Render: default; Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group libreoffice: Installed: 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial6 Candidate: 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial6 Version table: *** 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial6 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:5.1.2-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages I don't know if it's related, but I'm low on root disk space; only about 200-500MB. I normally have about a dozen writer documents open, and 1-4 spreadsheets in calc open. Also, these documents are generally open until a crash happens; Days, weeks... I do not close most of these documents (nor exit libreoffice) for a very long time, if ever. I only reboot the machine or quit libreoffice when I'm forced to. So perhaps it's related to length of time open, I don't know. Screenshot of "top" attached.
