Bug ID: 97492
Summary: FORMATTING: Writer gradually becomes slow, especially
w.r.t applying styles
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.0.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: eyal...@technion.ac.il
I am working on documents which were originally imported from MS Word (but I've
been copy-pasting those files and editing versions of them for years now). They
are in Hebrew. They're not so large (~10 pages typically) and have maybe one
embedded image.
In LO 4.x, everything was hunky-dory, so to speak, and I was editing with ease.
Suddently, with LO 5.x, I've began to experience gradual slowdown as I work.
This is in the responsiveness of LO in general - it becomes more sluggish - but
most of all when it comes to chaging paragraph styles. It gets to the point of
me having to wait 10-15 seconds - on a fairly recent Core i5, 3.4 GHz and lots
of RAM - to switch from Heading 2 to Heading 3 and back. If I shut down the app
- not just the document, but all document windows - and restart it, It's like I
reset the slowness level to a reasonable value.
At first I thought this had something to do with Paragraph style previews, so I
disabled those, but there wasn't a noticeable effect. I also tried another
computer, same phenomenon basically. I do think it's worse when the style pane
is open, though.
I'm not sure if I'm barking up the right tree w.r.t. where the problem lies -
maybe it has nothing to do with styles and that's just a symptom - but it is
making use of LO almost intolerable.
