I can confirm this issue with Libreoffice version 5.1.4. I had a hard time reproducing the slow downs users where reporting to me but managed to recreate the conditions. I narrowed the problem to files listed in "Recent Documents" which are located on a file server (cifs).
With the list populated with about 10 items on the file server and about five open documents the effect is most noticeable. Typing and opening the menus will lag enormously, this will continue until you either clear the list of recent documents or remove it from the menu all together. The difference between a populated and a cleared list is like night and day. The file server in question has decent performance but can take a second to respond if it is very busy. Either way, I do expect the first time listing on the menu to take some time. But the impact on overall performance is very unexpected and likely unintended. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1366519 Title: Incredibly slow editing of documents when connected to network To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1366519/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
