We had such problems with Adobe's PDF acroread, which seemed to cause
the slowing down of not only OOo 3.0.1. After removing Adobe acroread
(to not come into the temptation to start it) the problems dissapeared.
You only have to have Adobe's PDF Reader (acroread) to run in the
background without even a PDF file loaded to slow things down.
I use Realplayer 10 on x86_64 without problems. Helix and Realplayer 11
caused the problems you described.
I'm assuming you're using Linux, because I get the same issue with
Acrobat Reader on Ubuntu 8.10. It chews up CPU cycles at an alarming
rate and brings everything to a standstill. Thankfully there are other
options.

grieving that there were no outlaws any more, and wondering what modern
civilization could claim to have done to compensate for their loss. They
said they would rather be outlaws a year in Sherwood Forest than
President of the United States forever." Mark Twain's Adventures of Tom
