--- Comment #10 from Roman Eisele <[email protected]> ---
Until now, this bug was missing a detailed description. Therefore I copy the
good description from bug 53704 (which is a duplicate of the present one), with
some minor changes:

> Problem description: 
> 
> When doing the first edit in a new document, Libre Office locks up for a
> number of seconds, causing the busy wheel to occur. It’s annoying and
> reminds of buginess each time one use Libre Office.
> 
> Perhaps this bug is specific to OS X. Perhaps it's some form of resources
> that are initialized (such as perhaps plugins loaded from disk), that causes
> this. I would try to do it asynchronously with low priority and no matter
> what do it as early as possible. Even if it cannot be done asynchronously I
> would do it at the beginning of opening the document. Better it occurs then
> rather than when the user tries to work. 
> 
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Start Libre office
> 2. Open a new text document
> 3. Do any form of editing in the document, such as type on letter.
> 4. Libre Office will lock up so long that OS X busy wheel occurs.

What regards the ideas about what causes this delay (“Perhaps …”), I want to
add another idea: I fear that LibreOffice connects to the Java Runtime
Environment (JRE) as soon as you start typing. Why it does so, I don’t know.
But if you disable Java, you will get an alert (saying that Java was required)
as soon you start typing -- see bug 34809 for details. This alert appears
exactly in the moment when, if Java *is* installed, the delay happens, and
therefore I think that the delay may be related to JRE initialization, too...

About the version:
As bug 53704 states, this issue is still present in LibO 3.6.0.

(NB: Please do NOT “update” the “Version” field in the present bug report: it
always states the FIRST version in which a bug is known to exist, not the last
one. Thank you!)
