I did some tests and gnumeric wasnt that fast with the same files as
OOo in some cases with the same file.


Gnumeric OOo Excel Native Excel.ooo.export

Save 2:21.48 4:32.48 17.65 17.73
Save as 14:35.15 2:40.98 7.64 2:37.22

Excel Native was the fastest each and every time, though. By a margin of
minutes, not seconds, most of the time.

Gnumeric was much faster than OOo in all but one case, but that one
exception was huge.

Excel only lost to OOo one time, that that was Excel.ooo.export - open.

So I guess the best thing to do is use Excel native. If you care about
productivity, that is.

I will have to do a comparison to Office 12 and XML to see if the effects are the same. I will also have to see if the XML decompresses the same as OOo.

Also, Excel file format is useless in my work as I have to use XML for other programs to access the data.
