I wrote about this a few weeks ago, but got no response. Now I have done some testing and my results might cause someone to notice what the issue is. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and LO Version 5.0.5.2.

I have a spreadsheet of about 200k. it is about 6 pages and there are some links between a few pages. Page 2 is a ledger with dates in the first column. My dates start in the summer and end in the summer, not on a calendar basis. When I am scrolling or entering data after December, the sheet slows to a point that a page down takes about 10-15 seconds. After copying to a test file, I deleted the pages other than page 2 (with the dates), one page at a time, saving the file each time. I then try to more the cursor after December. No change for each page deleted. On page 2 I started deleting columns, doing the same test (save/test). No change all the way to the date column alone-no change.

It also takes about a minute to load the sheet. The progress bar jumps to the middle of the screan, then crawls slowly to the end.

I then copied another test sheet and deleted all entries below December, calcs and cursor moves worked fine.

Therefore I concluded that the problem is with the dates after December. I am doing no date math. This seems like a LO internal (Java?) problem.

Thoughts?   Work Arrounds?

let clarify it. . .

First, are the dates listed with or without the year - September 4th or September 4th 2015?

You had dates listed
June date
July dates
August. .
September
October
November
December dates
January dates
February date
and so on. . .

You are having slow down issues accessing the January dates and beyond?

I deal with making a list of monthly deposits with a graphic to the right of the deposit amounts. I do not use any year info except in a "text" cell.

column 1 column 2 graphic sideways bar graph based on the date and amounts

Dec. 24             $256.04
Jan. 25 2016     $356.35
Feb. 25             $389.45
March 23
  [March amount had not been added yet]

I do not use a date formatted cell for the dates in the first column. I do not need it to be formatted.

Are you using a date formatted cell/column? If so, then try the option to make the cell for the date from a date formatted cell to a text cell. If that fixes the issues you are having, then there is some issues with the date formatting of that cell/column.

I do not know what the internal bug/issue could be, but if my idea of using text cells instead of date formated cell, then it may narrow down where the bug/issue.
