I did some tests to see how we were doing, comparing AOO 3.4.1 on Windows against OOo 3.3.0. And since LibreOffice claims that their 4.0 release is much faster and leaner, I tested them as well, to see if we could learn anything.
I just did a basic test, seeing how long it took to load a large text document, in this case the ODF 1.2 specification. I looked at memory consumed and the number of seconds to load. I loaded the document once to reduce the impact of disk caching and then repeated 5 times and took the average. All tests done on identical hardware. Memory use (KB for soffice.bin): OOo 3.3.0: 133,472 AOO 3.4.1: 129,928 LO 4.0: 165,796 Load time for ODF 1.2 specification (seconds, average of 5 loads) OOo 3.3.0: 16.0 AOO 3.4.1: 20.9 LO 4.0: 23.7 Does anyone have any other good test documents for doing performance tests of OpenOffice?
