Hello,
recently I moved from OpenOffice to LibreOffice on my openSuSE 11.3 linux
box.
Libreoffice itself starts fast on this system which has 8GB of memory and a
Core i5 processor .
What I noticed is that opening an existing document eg a spreadsheet (.ods)
takes a very long time. For a spreadsheet that has only 20 lines (filesize,
18.5 Kbyte), with LibreOffice already running, take about 6 seconds until
the document is visible. During the 6 seconds the new opened window is
simply grey.
If I close the docuement without leaving LibreOffice and the reopen it again
its loaded really fast and then also other docuemnts load fast (< 1sec). So
it seems that when the first docuement is loaded something else happens that
take quite a long time. When I reastart Libreoffice and open the docuement
once again, it again takes 6 sec to open it .
This does not only happen with a single special document but with each and
every docment I try to open. In Openoffice the load time for such a small
spreadsheet was not even one second.
Any ideas what might be the cause for this delay?
Have a nice day
Rainer
Hi Rainer
I had a similar, if not the same issue, on my openSUSE 11.3 64Bit install. I
use KDE and had not installed the libreofice-gnome extensions for this reason.
Having been advised to remove my libreoffice profile, which did nothing, I
decided to install the gnome extension anyway and for me this resolved the
issue. Perhaps it will for you too. I install libreoffice from the stable
repository at:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Stable/openSUSE_11.3/
HTH

I get a delay myself on Ubuntu 10.10 [GNOME desktop] for Writer as
well. The delay is not as bad most times, but it can be a problem. I
click on the file to open in LibreOffice. When it comes up and I see
the courser marking, it still is "frozen" for a few seconds with the
time depending on the size of the file. I usually keep LibreOffice's
initial screen open and minimized to prevent more than 5 second delay.
I do wonder what is the cause/issue, but I hope it will be fixed or
reduced in the 3.3.2 version.
So it is not just openSUSE that does it. Ubuntu does as well. I rarely
use my Vista laptop so I will see if it does it there [later today since
the boot time is long due to all the security packages I use to keep a
Windows system safe online].
