Hello to all the developers,
Here are the tests I carried out in detail to help you clarify the issue:

_ I installed the latest stable version available (26.2.3.2) in case it would
fix the issues I reported here -> no significant difference.

_ To remove any lingering doubt, I then performed a reset in accordance with
the method officially recommended by the development team (Safe Mode, etc.) - >
no noticeable difference.

_ I specify that I only use one extension: Grammalecte
(Grammalecte-fr-v2.3.0.oxt) <- https://grammalecte.net/

_ I approximately timed the delay of a corrective insertion (content corruption
by the import into LibreOffice Writer: missing arrows, but not all of them) in
my working document, page 330, and after more than 40 minutes of waiting, I
ended up losing patience and lacking concentration to note the exact end of
this endless delay!

_ To compare, I performed an equivalent operation with the first diagram found
at the very beginning of my working document (page 1) -> surprise! a few
seconds of delay "only" (sic!)

I would like to point out that other tests have shown the random appearance of
unnecessary spacing borders in all directions around the vector graphics of my
imported files. I couldn’t identify an obvious cause, since this can happen
with files of different size and complexity, not directly related to this bug.

It should be added that I have been using vector graphics files in SVG format
created with the software VUE (Visual Understanding Environment) v3.3.0 for
many years with LibreOffice Writer, and that it is only in recent years that I
have encountered these difficulties. First of all, there was the addition of
unnecessary spaces around the rectangle that constitutes the coherent
boundaries of the generated graphics. Then, I noticed with some delay the
alteration of the imported images (missing arrows), and finally lately, the
unbearable import delay that is at the origin of this bug report.

And finally, importing bitmap graphics files in JPEG format triggers the same
delay issue!

Assumptions:

I had done some research on the Internet when I first encountered this bug, and
a Reddit page that I couldn’t find already talked about the difficulties
encountered with importing vector graphics files in SVG format into large
documents with LibreOffice. It seems to me that here is indeed the case!

Moreover, since importing an SVG into LibreOffice Draw does not alter the
original content, while LibreOffice Writer is not as respectful, it seems
logical to think at my level of simple user that the graphic import module is
not identical between these two software programs. 
Naively, I had assumed that the office software suite LibreOffice had from its
origin adopted a modular logic for this type of import. Obviously, I was wrong
on this point. It is all the more surprising that the logic of source code
maintenance, as well as its redundant reuse, is at the heart of an optimization
issue, it seems to me.

Since my tests show a link between the position of the imported graphic and the
file size, it seems that this is a serious lead that should be taken into
consideration.

I hope this helps you.
