It is not LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org, but the JDK version which is causing the problem. Furthermore, it is not even the first time that such a change has caused the very same issue of poor performance. So if anyone is to blame, it is Oracle. The solution is to go back to version JDK1.6u22, u21 or even u20. The way to do this has already been posted in this list and will be in the mailing list archives. > > This has prompted me to revisit the question of whether to separate out > my data tables.
