            Bug ID: 169400
           Summary: Startup graphics tests causes LibreOffice to hang in
                    first startup for a few seconds
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
I use a computer with a fast processor and enough memory which can start
LibreOffice in less than a second. But, at first startup, just after the
progress bar in the splash screen reaches 100%, LibreOffice hangs for a few
second, and I see a white blank window with the title "Not responding".
LibreOffice start center is displayed after that.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start LibreOffice normally
2. Use "Help > Start in Safe Mode...", select "Restart..."
2. Choose "Reset to factory settings", and enable two "Reset..." options below
that.
3. Click "Restart in Normal Mode".

Actual Results:
LibreOffice hangs at first startup, for a few seconds. The window becomes
white, showing "Not responding", and the user can not know what is happening.
Interacting with the hanged window may lead to crash/force closing of the
application via the OS.

Expected Results:
LibreOffice should not hang at any startup, even for a few seconds. Hang at
first startup is even worse, as it causes bad first impression.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
Version: 25.8.2.2 (X86_64)
Build ID: d401f2107ccab8f924a8e2df40f573aab7605b6f
CPU threads: 20; OS: Windows 11 X86_64 (build 26200); UI render: Skia/Vulkan;
VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded

If you look into the code for startup, the root cause is a set of tests that
are invoked at first startup, via runGraphicsRenderTests(). The function writes
the result of these tests to a log file, and it is not essential at first
startup. One can optionally run those tests from "Tools > Options > LibreOffice
> View > Run Graphics Tests".
