Got it. (I think) Reproduce: Start any program that runs "nice", level 19, priority 39 (the absolute minimum there is), but eats 100% CPU. For example: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] or something like that.
Then open an OOo document with lots of embedded EPS graphics. Watch OOo freeze for 2-5 seconds before displaying each and every EPS graphic. The same without the CPU eater running - even if niced to the max! - will incur only a small delay (1/2s), barely noticeable if you don't have too many graphics. So: IMHO this is still a bug, since the EPS previews could well be cached inside the document and displayed faster, plus, the constant preview regeneration eats CPU time. Plus, if a "niced" program is running, it should not interfere with software running at normal priority - and I've been running this background task (it's a computing cluster daemon) for three years now and this is the first time that it actually *had* a noticeable impact on foreground tasks. Could any OOo developer or packager comment on this please?
