            Bug ID: 85548
           Summary: slow FILESAVE and slow to exit from editing large
                    chart; only when name for data series spans more than
                    one cell (ie "Name In Range")
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.2.6.3 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet

Testfile showing slowdown (~3000 point xy-dataset with chart)

Hello,
Given a LibreOffice CALC spreadsheet with ~3000 x-y data points in columns
(attached):
I create a chart (xy scatter) of the dataset, 
and when I edit the range pointed to for the name of the Data Series (Name In
Range =...) such that this range now spans more than one cell (eg
$Sheet1.$D$3:$E$3) then suddenly...
 the time taken for saving the file and
 the time taken for exiting from the chart editor mode (after trivial change)
... both suddenly jump from a few(handful) seconds previously, to a painful
30sec for the absolute simplest(!) spreadsheet or >60sec for any real-world
analytical sheet.

This did not used to happen with LO CALC 4.1.6, which I used up to now; but it
did occur when I tried some 4.2 version a few months ago(I'm afraid I don't
know the exact version I was trying out at the time --- I reverted to 4.1.6 so
as to continue working)

[NB operating performance is otherwise perfectly acceptable so far with
4.2.6.3; Win7 32bit; dualcore 2GHz; 2GB RAM]

## Testfile illustrating the slowdown is attached:
SlowdownWhenSeriesNameSpans2Cells.ods ##

In the attachment, there are data in columns B and C, an xy-scatter plot of
these and a name for the data series in two cells at D3:E3 == "PrefixSpec
Sample Spec".
If a trivial modification is made to the chart (eg resize slightly; edit text
of axis-title; etc) then exiting the chart edit mode takes ~30 seconds for me.
Saving any changes to the file, also takes ~30 seconds.

The inordinate slowdown is removed by editing the chart, such that the name of
the data series is pointed to just one cell eg E3 == "SampleSpec"...
ie<DoubleClick chart> >> Data Ranges >> Data Series >> Select 'Name' >> Range
For Name >> click button to 'select data range', select cell E3 >> OK.

Regards, John.
