Even on a new computer, using the latest version, when I start OOo I can go to the kitchen, get a drink and come back just when the application is loading.

You must be joking here.
Or you mean a 'kitchen' right on your desk and with a very small cup to fill ;-)

I'm not kidding. Admitedly, the kitchen is not far, but it's on a different room. I just did a test. It's heavily biased in favour of OOo but I can't be bothered to make a typical case right now. It took 1 minute to load and took 91% of the CPU load....

I have the same experience (also with a fairly new computer): it takes at least a minute for OOo to load with no document open, more if I'm opening it and loading a document at the same time. That's more than enough time for me to get up, walk 3 metres to the kitchen, get a glass, fill it with water, walk back, and sit down again.

Well, on my more then two years old laptop, I run FireFox, Mozilla, 1.1.5, 2.0.2, Gimp and more at once.

My laptop is older than that I think.

Daniel's laptop (if he's referring to the one I think he means) is around 4 years old, and it does not have a lot of memory, but it is at least double the minimum requirement for OOo.

Cheers, Jean
