Although this is more of OO problem than LTSP...BTW OO has forums where you can look up lot of answers.

One solution from the forum I got was to delete the file /home/user/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/user/psprint/pspfontcache Apparently if the users dabble with lot of fonts this files grows very big and then the slow down occurs. Worked like charm in our organization. Also if one users has already started OO it is generally observed that the subsequent user gets the start quicker!! I had also posted a hack solution for slow opening spread sheets if these were originally created in M$Excel. Just patiently open the spreadsheet, choose all sheets and copy them into a new file. The only problem is loss of all formatting but I suspect that it was this which was causing the slow down.
