Addendum: I did the following to corner this bug.

Using OOo 2.2.0 from Feisty, Feisty on all machines, all i386., all
upgraded from Edgy.

I have a second machine (notebook) where this bug does not appear (or
rather, not after scrolling once through the whole document so that all
images and EPS graphics are loaded). This is a P-4 Mobile 1800 running
at 600MHz. The "problematic" machine is an AMD sempron 2800+ running at
1500 MHz, so CPU speed should not be an issue. Maybe CPU caching is?

I exchanged the harddisk of the problematic machine because I suspected read 
errors. No change.
I copied the file to a different directory. No change.

I started "oowriter" on the console and noticed that whenever it froze for a 
second, it would output this:
-------------------------------------------
        plot-hpgl:              .hpgl:  hpgl via GNU libplot    
(/usr/lib/pstoedit/libp2edrvlplot.so)
This driver supports the following additional options: (specify using -f 
"format:-option1 -option2")
[          plotformat    : string        : plotutil format to generate]

The notebook's oowriter version (also Feisty) would output this too, but
only on the first scroll-through, not on subsequent scrolls. The
problematic machine outputs this text everytime I scroll past an EPS
graphic, and evertime it freezes for a second.

So *something* is wrong with my OOo configuration. But I deleted the
whole .openoffice.org2 directory and even then the problem did not go
away. And, as I said, on my notebook it doesn't exist at all.

I compared the "Memory" settings in the Extras > Options >
Openoffice.org > "Arbeitsspeicher" menu and they are identical (100 undo
steps, graphics cahe 9 MB / 2.4 MB / 10 min, 20 objects) on both
machines.


Please help! =;()
